That's an option that really appeals to me. I will definitely look to get these when I get another car.

From what I've read Porsche doesn't force air out of the seat onto the occupant but instead pulls air through the seat in the reverse direction. Is this the case as far as you know? How quickly do you feel the system working on a warm day? Is there an off/on switch like heated seats?

It's interesting that some manufacturers force air from the seat onto the occupant (even air conditioned air) and Porsche does it the opposite way. A friend had an Infiniti with cooled seats and I'm still not sure how they worked. No air, but they cooled with some sort of element embedded in the seats.

Thanks,
