Only on the 993 turbo model, and they are DOT approved.  They are also 
on most high-line cars: The new Audi A8, MB 600SL, 500SL, 320SL, 600 & 
500 SEC & SEL models, but not on the new 320E (is a option for the 
420E)  BMW have them for the 850CSi, 840Ci, 750iL model, and as a 
option for the 740.  now Lincoln Mark VIII has them too.....  It is 
the light of the future, just like ABS/air bags.....  It will trickle 
down to the mass market cars in the next few years.....
