A good vindaloo will do a great job, weighs a lot less (actually will aid with lightening the car's load) and costs hundreds of $'s less than 541. Porsche poppadoms anyone?
I don't understand the indian food references...can anyone explain?

I don't understand why seat ventilation is only available with heated seats. Heated seats are for cold countries and vented seats are for hot countries. So, why would one need both?

New vented seats for a really pleasant climate
In conjunction with seat heating, the new models in the 911 range are available as an option
for the first time with seat ventilation on both the standard and comfort seats. Creating a
healthy and comfortable micro-climate between the driver/passenger and the surface of the
seat is indeed particularly important, since this is precisely the point where the occupant is
constantly in contact with the car. Active seat ventilation offers a pleasantly comfortable and
warm, dry climate on the seat surface also in the hot season.
To switch on the seat ventilation, all the occupant has to do is press a button in the centre
console. Touching the button just once, he will first activate the highest of the three comfort
stages, three blue light-emitting diodes presenting the ventilation stage currently in use. This
stage remains active until the driver or front passenger switch to another level of ventilation.
The only exception is when the surface temperature on the seat drops to less than 15* C
or 59* F, with the system switching off automatically in order to avoid undercooling.
The seat bottom is vented specifically at those points where the occupant is in direct con -
tact with the seat, which are shown by the characteristic perforation on the seat cover. Air
is supplied by one fan in the seat bottom and another in the backrest, taking up any per -
spiration moisture between the occupant and the seat surface through the perforated seat
bottom and the backrest centre section. Air flows in through a special air guidance tissue
and is conveyed by a hose beneath and, respectively, behind the seat. This serves to quickly
cool down the seat surfaces heated up by the sun and prevent the occupants from sweating
while driving.
Even when operating at their highest level, the two fans are so quiet that they remain hardly
noticeable.
Seat ventilation may be combined with temperature control on the seat heating serving to
consistently withdraw moisture and at the same time keeping the seat surface at a pleasant
temperature.

From my reading of the OG, it looks like even though the "sport seats" can be heated, ventilation cannot. Is this how everyone else reads this as well?
