Default Nope, not unless the owner was dumb enough to send their car to Houston for retro-fit and

spend $700 for this wasted "option". Less than 1,000 people out of almost 15,000 chose to do this. lol

Default very, very dangerous in an emergency situation

not implemented well at all. Done much better in other cars.

Default Considering that 3/4 of the car

had to be taken apart to install ESP, I did not want my brand new car to go through this.

Default Huh? Care to elaborate?....

I am one of the guys who had the ESP installed. Do you have any solid, objective evidence to substantiate your claims?

Thanks.

Default Include me in that elite list. $500 or so. Car was assembled better when returned.

Not a big deal really, but for resale, like ABS, people may/do ask about it. They may not consider buying the car without it. And you get a button that functions on the dash. I have not noticed the danger of it and every new TT includes it.
