You'll have to wait until August 26th. I'm heading up north to Norcal again this coming weekend. This time for a bachelor party in Tahoe. Ho hum...

CWP is one of my favorite options. The thicker and heated steering wheel is hard to beat. I wasn't a fan of heated seats in other cars, but find that these heated seats to be quite good.

I have had heated seats in my cars since my 95 M3. Please don't tell me about it not being cold in SoCal .....It is often in the low 40's and 30's on early mornings and late nights in winter and it can get down to the 20's. That is more than cold enough for me, even though to some around the country and the world that is pretty mild. There is nothing like the feeling of the heated seat surface when the weather is cold. For one of the options that I use most $750 is more than worth it for the CWP, which includes heated seats, heated steering wheel and headlight washers.

Oh YA!!! that!!! Now that throws in another variable into the equation... I'm glad I didnt know about it when I got the car else I would have wanted the CWP just for the steering wheel.
