Hi, does anyone know what can be weight difference between stripper 981 and fully optioned? Does for example adaptive cruise control add any notable weight? Or is Burmester stereo heavier than standard or Bose?

I saw that first gen Panamera could weigh 200 kilograms (440 pounds) more depending on options.

electrics will add grams but AC, PDK, seats, battery, hi-fi, wheels ceramic disks all add up and weights can be googled.

I guess a stripper could be easy 60kg lighter.

I think 18-way seats are a lot heavier than buckets and sports seats due to all the electrical components. Seat heating and cooling will add a bit of weight too.

Wheel choice will make a difference, I think Carrera Classics are quite weighty. PCCBs are a bit lighter than steels, but given that they're also a lot larger the difference isn't massive on a 981.

Extra leather everywhere will add a bit plus Sound Package Plus and Bose/Burmester add more speakers than the stock system, so more weight there. Cruise/Adaptive Cruise/Parking sensors won't make that much of a difference given that they're small electrical parts.
