Default 992 GT3 - No Heated Steering Wheel Option?

Laugh all you want, but I don't see why this isn't an option on the GT3 if all other 911s have this favorite creature comfort. Yes, "track cars don't need it" but what about the touring purposes!?

Hands stay warm with all the shifting and steering happening!

You'll be driving so fast that you'll have sweaty hands from scaring yourself!

Ashamed to admit it but I actually asked about this relative to the customized steering wheel option (love a toasty wheel). No dice.

For GT cars they should offer a heated steering wheel + heated tire package.

You might as well ask for one of these on a GT3...
