Would you buy a Z with no heated seats?

Every car I buy has heated seats - convertible or not. Just adds that extra degree of comfort when you need it. Great for warming up quick whilst the heater gets the cabin warm on a cold day. I really feel the cold through my back and find its a must. Mrs Behr also wants the seats on almost all year round.

If I bought a Zed without then I would quickly retrofit.

I had a Range Rover a few years ago and that came as standard with a heated steering wheel. I had two new discovery's after that and ticked the option on those too. What a luxury for a £140 (iirc) option at the time. Lovely!
 
I just bought one without heated seats and I "kinda" miss them, my Jag has them, as does my Lexus (front and back LOL) but my TVRs didn't and I used the last one with the roof down anytime it wasn't raining..

As people have said, there are plenty of roadsters around that will have all of the options you want, so unless you see one specific one, at a good price then I'd probably keep looking.

On the other hand, if (like me) you come across a reasonable one at a bargain price (mine was ~50p a cc :-)) then the heated seats can be retrofitted or a Kevlar heated seat set can be bought reasonably cheaply.

My wife's SLK350 (which has an air scarf which is rather nice) had the usual SLK issue of a broken seat pad, the Kevlar kit was ~£80 to repair that and came with the full kit to install heated seats in 2 cars.
