Help on configuation: heated sport steering?

I had the sport steering in my outgoing 2014 E550, option #277

Now I ordered my new 2014 E550 replacement with heated steering, option #443

Does anyone know if #443 is trispoke AND flat bottom like the sport?

Can I get a sport wheel with heat?

Thanks

If you add heated steering to an E-class with sport you will get a 3-spoke all leather wheel with perforated segments at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions but no flat bottom.

Option 277 and 443 are mutually exclusive both in Canada and in the US based on the EPC. I have yet to find a steering wheel out of the dozen different ones that are +277+443+494 coded meaning they are for NA market and both sport and heated.

Yup, looks just like my steering wheel here in TX. That is NOT the sport steering wheel Peter was inquiring about. That is the standard 3-spoke that every E-class Sport comes with, only heated.

Is the diameter of the flat bottom wheel the same as the round three spoke, and is the thickness the same?

I really like my current flat bottom wheel

From the photos it looks like the diameter and thickness are the same, only that there is a flat part on the sport version. But on the on-line configurator when you swap between the two the sport seems a bit thicker.
