Default Power folding mirrors?

Do these exist for the TT? I know they were available for most of Audi's lineup in Europe as well as many US models.

I swapped in the power-folding/heated mirrors from a Japanese Silvia on to my 240sx and now I'm sort of spoiled by their nifty nature. I'm just curious as I've never seen any mention of them with the TT specifically.

Exactly, and turtles retract into their shell so it'd only be fitting for the reflective appendages of the TT to fold in.

What about heated mirror glass that works with the window defroster?

Pretty functional for poorly spaced parking lots, tight garages or getting extra clearance from the gits that like to ding your car. I know my old mirrors had a few nicks. Also, it's just humorous to make them flap about at random when people are gawking at your car. I suppose it's one of those things you have to have been exposed to in order to appreciate it. I know in Japan it is federal mandate due to the congestion issues in the urban areas and is optional on many European vehicles for similar reasons.

I suppose it'd be too much to ask for the mirrors to be auto-dimming as well? I don't consider these to be very complex or obscure options, and they are available throughout the Audi lineup. I also fully intend on having the Audi RNS-e navigation once I get my TT as well, just have to allocate the proper center console. I suppose I am a bit spoiled in my expectations, LOL.
