That would be awesome!!!!!
Porsche offers that why not BMW??? |
Because the unfortunate reality is that 99% of bmw drivers have no interest in that at all. The brand has become more appealing to people who want the badge as a status symbol, not to actually utilize what the cars capable of - case in point when they released the reasoning behind why they lightened the feel of the steering years ago because "too many younger women complained it was too heavy" ... |
I would hope that prospective M car owners would be a bit more discerning and would think that at least 80% would know a decent seat when they see one. If you are taking about MSport owners, then yes, a good number are likely a bit more into cosmetic, rather than dynamic enhancements. Here in the UK, you can delete the MSport passive suspension in favour of the SE/Modern standard suspension.
Of interest also, is that police BMWs are SE/Modern spec, but with MSport suspension, which is something the general public can't specify.
