Default Keyless entry retrofit possible?

Hi everyone, just picked up a 2014 GTS recently. Got it as a left over 2014 inventory, for some odd reason the car doesn't have keyless entry. I would like to find out if anybody has experience with retrofitting it? Or is it even possible to do so?
Thanks in advance!

Maybe this is why. I would never buy without that. Hope you can get it work.

Sorry I am no help. Maybe a dealer ca assist.

if possible, it would require a lot of part changes. For example, you'd need to replace (and have repainted) each of your door handles (the keyless ones have a button on them that you use to lock the door). Ignition switch would likely need to be replaced too -- then there are the modules and antennas and programming.

No able to be done. Not wired with "entry and drive" without option being selected before build. Congrats on your GTS! AMAZING machine.

I bought a 2015 s and the original owner did not get this feature. But he got a ton of other options. Why would someone not get this feature???

Almost all of the 2017 4S Launch Vehicles also are lacking Comfort Access which is baffling to me. These vehicles served as dealer demos mostly and are are now being sold as used or certified cars. I have no idea why Porsche would spec these otherwise highly-optioned cars this way.

The 2017s include keyless start as standard, so the only thing missing is keyless entry. It seems like it might be easier to retrofit than earlier models, but who knows.
