Default Retrofit Porsche Entry & Drive?

Trying to decide ebtween to CPO'ed 04 CTTs. One has 15K miles, but has a build date of 04/2003 (cloth headliner) and has the keyless entry option. The other has 27K miles, a build date of 04/2004 (alcantara headliner), but no keyless entry.

Can keyless entry to retro-fitted? Which one would you recommend if both cars were similarily priced?

No, at least not at a cost of millions of dollars and hundreds of human lives.

Neither. Ask some alpha/beta owners.

I thought I read somewhere that an 2004 built after 08/2003 would have many of the recalls/fixes implemented from the factory. Is this not the case?

That's one way to put it I suppose.
