Ageed. sounds about right. However, I would have paid up to $1K for it, if I could. Why not make the standalone options available only in conjunction with a Line? BMW, are you listening? do you hear cha-ching? missed that one huh? or would that be too obvious? I think its already very evident that these Lines were created for a larger profit margin so why not admit it?

Any other corrections on estimated retail price of the options breakdown? or did i miss any options? funny BMW doesn't market every option the Lines offer, seems it would benefit them.


Thanks for catching the free Paddles on the M-sport, +$120; they are NOT free on the Sport Line however.

I always look for the best value, but in this case I personally don't like the look of the M-Sport body or the steering wheel. It makes the car look more like a wagon and less SAV. I Like the interior color choices of the x-Line and the exterior silver bits more than the sport seats, so I dug myself into the Line which offers the worst value. The base price of this car is already poor value so why not top it off. LOL
