What factory option do you most wish you had?
Or wish you car didn't have?
My car is pretty loaded; PCCB, differential lock, adaptive sports, etc, painted seats, console, etc.
While minor and something I can't fix, I miss headrest crests on this car. I don't know why, I always like those

Wish I had not wasted money on the factory phone and the warping CF on the dash top. The rest of the CF is ok.
Tip was a had to have due to hip replacements, but glad I have it regardless.
CF illuminated door sills seemed silly at the time, but grew to like them a lot.

I have a pre-owned 997.2 TTS so it's got a lot of nice options that were standard.
Porsche crest in the headrests, heated steering wheel and a backup camera would be nice to have.

My car is very well equipped, so there aren't too many things to add. I suppose that I would add a few more leather bits to the interior and a painted center console if I could add anything. I sometimes think that the silver trim option for the front grilles would be nice.

I bought my car used so I really didn't have a choice on specific options, but now that I'm the owner the option I appreciate most are the PCCB's. The option I wish I had most is a leather console, which I'm thinking about adding.

My car was loaded but I wish the previous owner got red stitching every where and red gauges, also I would want a few more interior bits wrapped in leather as well like the shifter surround.
I may spend the 300 to do that myself. Oh I also wish he got the ventilated seats. Not sure why he spent so much in options to only get seat heating and not ventilation as well. Especially with the car being black in and out.

Even though I am not the original owner, it is kind of strange that I would have pretty much ordered the car "as is" with the same exact options as I don't find myself saying "I wish I had"...BUT if I had to come up with something I think I would have probably liked the PCCB brakes...well at least uintil they needed maintenance

My car is not a 997 nor a turbo, but generally speaking, PSE would have been nice.
As well as ventilated seats, probably not available in '04, the sports seats would have been cool.
Heated steering wheel would be welcomed.

My wish list is pretty short:
In general I'm extremely happy with the options and modifications on my car and wouldn't trade it for the world.
I thought I'd notice not having heated seats during the winter but I don't. I don't know what it is but the porsche always stays really comfortable inside no matter what the temperature. Maybe all the full leather helps to keep it warmer?
- heated seats
- Limited Slip Differential

Deviated stitching would be nice. The deviated carpet option looks great in certain colors.
