If accurate, would this apply to the M-Sport Wheel with paddle shifters as well as the M-Sport wheel without paddles?

Finally, does a heated M-Sport Wheel require the M-Sport Pack AND the M-Performance Pack AND the Cold Weather Package or can one get it with just ordering the M-Sport Package and the Cold Weather Package?

Sorry for all the questions but a few of us are confused as to the potential availability of a heated M-sport Steering Wheel.

Here is the excerpt:
"Over and above that, the range of special equipment for the BMW X5 will in future also include the optional heated steering wheel in conjunction with the M leather-clad steering wheel."

Thanks in advance.
