Yes never thought about folding mirrors being an option, just assumed mine would have them and it did.

For the convertible heated seats are highly desirable, unless you’re going to drive with the roof up most of the time. For the coupe it’s just a nice to have.

I don't have heated seats in mine or folding mirrors and only the basic electric seats, I move the seat forward and backwards old style with the handle below the seat, Have to say lIke it that way. It was the pano roof that sold it for me.

Car purchased April 2017. Seats & Sterling wheel have never moved, apart from steering wheel position getting in/out.

Heated Seats - never used
Headlight washers - never used
Headlights - maybe twice
Horn - never used

Only time some of the buttons have been pressed is MOT 😄

Pano a must 👍

I went ott on the seats. Had for many years but hardly ever use. It was just a shock it didn’t and belief it would hurt residuals.
Having checked on autotrader and realising it’s about 50% without it’s no longer an issue. Plus unlike Porsche there’s no gaping hole where the switches should be. In fact you’d never tell which is why I never noticed it

Headlight washers I wouldn’t care about either but they work every 4th window wash with button, so no doubt you do actually use it, just don’t think about like me.

Headlight washers not required with LED lights so will disconnect if easy. Don’t want that shit over the car paintwork

It isn’t damaging the paintwork if you use the correct water and fluid in the washer container.
