An interesting feature of the week 9/05 cars is the improved, expanded functionality, braking system and ESP.

Anybody knows if the added functions (soft stop, hill stop braking, anti-rain brakes drying system ) are purely software upgradings or are they new hardware devices?

Is it possible to retro-fit them on m.y. 05 cars?

I've heard it is hardware. So no software upgrade possible
