Thanks. I think I'll stop by my dealer this weekend to confirm.

Btw, how do you like your Turbo S? Is it insanely fast?

The car is great. Took Euro delivery option. Travelled 120-150 mph from Stuttgart to Austria! Only had one clear run to 295 kph before I had to lift for traffic, but car was still pulling. Fast, comfortable, reasonably practical GT car.

After confirming with the dealer, I cancelled the muti-function steering wheel and opted for the standard steering wheel with paddle shifters. prg, thanks for bring this to my attention.

Park assist: Tight garage space at home, need all the assistance I can get.

Electric sunroof: Yeah, this is what you get used to living in 台北 for many years.......I got used to the car prices here as well.
