Hi All,
I am looking for someone thoughts on purchasing a Turbo that was somehow spec'd without RAS or Comfort Keyless Entry. It's a 2023 about 145k is generally the interior and exterior color combo I want. No PTV either. Does have ceramic breaks and PDCC. Dealbreaker to spend this much on a car that does not even have keyless entry or RAS?

Thanks

Please post the VIN. Lacking comfort entry seems odd.

RAS, PDCC and PTV are not must haves in my view. No owners with these systems report that their lives have been changed by those systems. They are fairly gimmicky in my view and sources of high cost repairs for second and third owners.

I wouldn't call these systems gimmicky, but they can be costly for repairs. PTV you won't notice unless you're driving in a lot of ice/snow. RAS has some benefits, but PDCC is by far the most important. PDCC transforms the ride/handling. Not sure how you don't end up with comfort entry, I thought it was standard for a turbo.

Without keyless entry at least you don't have to worry about someone spoofing your key and driving off in your car. Perhaps the original owner was worried about car thefts in their area.

Oddly enough my Cayenne S was spec'd without keyless entry. Personally, that didnt stop me at all from purchasing the car as it had many cosmetic and other options that were much more important to me. No big deal to click the button in my pocket.

When searching for a preowned car, you have to be flexible as it will be nearly impossible to find a car exactly how you would spec it if new.

RAS is one of those things you can’t live without only once you’ve had it.

It’s amazing how the car maneuvers with RAS a real game changer especially with parallel parking and u-turns
