Does this car have thicker steering wheel?

My dad just took delivery of his new car in Hong Kong. I helped him pick out his options, and one of them was the thicker steering wheel. I am an ocean away from his car so I can't feel if it is thicker then the regular steering wheel. Can you guys tell it is from these pics?

Re: Does this car have thicker steering wheel?

I'd say yes but it really is difficult to tell from these pics. Could you post a picture of the sticker under the front hood? It is a white sticker with all options and the VIN number of the car (you can blacken out the VIN number if you want to).

thanks RC, I didn't know that. I will try to ask for a pic.

I remember "CPZ" was the code for thicker steering wheel in the 996, don't know for 997

Re: Does this car have thicker steering wheel?

From the "Build your Own" on the Porsche website, and it did say the option code is XPA for the thicker full leather sport steering wheel.
