boxster S steering wheel

Hi I am currently looking at buying a 2002 boxster S but it has a 4 spoke steering wheel ! while all the other boxsters have 3 spokes can anybody tell me if this is the right steering wheel for the 2001 model?

Steering wheel was switched to 3-spoke design starting in 2000.

If it passes a PPI, has the right options and is priced right don't let the steering wheel be a deal breaker. You can always swap out the wheel.
