Options preference

I have a 2012 Cayenne Turbo with almost 19K miles that I purchased and looking to lease a leftover 2013 CTT. There are great deals to be had..... received very fair trade numbers on my Turbo.

I found a great 203 CTT with PDCC, PTV, Ventilated Seats, Carbon Package, and some other good options. Drive is much more sporty than my non-PDCC car. The potential new car has the sport design steering wheel which is cool, but not heated (not an options)..... My current Turbo doesn't have PDCC, PTV nor ventilated seats.... but it does have the multi-function wheel with heat which is nice on the cold mornings......

So basically I am trading heated steering wheel for PDCC, PTV and ventilated seats which I love in the summer....... seems like a no brainer but I want it all!!

Thoughts?

Ask them to swap steering wheels?

I wish it was that easy. Cars with HSW have a separate wire that provides the power to heat the wheel. Cars w/o do not have the wire. Also programming is needed but this should not be an issue.

I did a search...... and I just called Suncoast.... no go.

Bummer. I'm sure it could still be done with a bit of ingenuity (run a line yourself) and a new clock spring, but it's not something the dealer would likely do and not something I would endorse on a leaser.

I would do it even thought I prefer the Multi function steering wheel. I have the sports steering wheel too and I have gotten used to it.

I think the Cayenne takes the biggest advantage of adding PDCC. Really a night and day difference for me. My father has the 2012 with PTV and no PDCC and I have a 2013 with PTV and PDCC, and the driving them back to back, you can really tell a difference between them especially on those long sweeping offramps.

I would do the 2013 in a heartbeat. Porsche makes one of the only ventilated seats that actually blow a lot of cold air. It's freaking wonderful in the summer!

if you're only going to keep it one year then get the gloves like one person said, otherwise order it like you want it.

I would order but not an option as the deal only works for me cause I am getting over 12% off a leftover 13 and need to keep the payment at a certain level as its a company car........ have to choose from inventory.
