Kind of a new guy lurking while trying to find a clean car. Besides high mileage at 85,000, one came up with a hot climate package. Trying to find out what this entails. I would be bringing the car to cold weather and don't wish to give up heated seats. Could be one the dumb question list, but thought I would throw it out. The dream would be Imola coupe with Alcantra, preferably 6 sp.

Thanks Ed

It probably has to do with which CCV was installed

I thought I read somewhere that all US cars had the 'hot climate' package.

So, I guess so maybe I should make sure it has the cold weather package. I will run a few vins and see what comes up Thanks

Heated seats were also available as a separate option, so Cold Weather Package isn't necessarily a requirement for having the heated seats.

For reference, hot climate option on an E21 meant they installed AC (all US spec E21's got hot climate). I seriously doubt that's what it meant on E46. Although if in theory it means I could have got a factory AC delete car I would be interested to see what the center console looks like
