The glass is heated.....prevents fogging up which is notorious due to bad sealing. Switch to control the heat elements for the glass is on left side of console

Interior the seats are different I believe (or were optional in Europe), lexan windows as Jas mentioned.

Jas, what makes the Euro cars lighter?

Couple of things mainly, the euro cars use fuel bladders vs rigid USA tanks. Also, the bumpers are heavier as well on USA cars. Difference in weight is not huge and was supposedly offset by a slight increase in power for USA cars (515hp is the rumoured amount that was "dialed in")

Cant really feel the weight difference when the boost comes on
