It's like everyone expected a N20 RWD X1 + Xenons / Cloth Seats / 6 SPD for base price.

Unfortunately people who want a car equipped like that are like..<5% of the buyers.
Beg pardon, but many folks would go for cloth on low-end models over vinyl. Nobody else offers vinyl in the US market that I can think of. In other markets, BMW offers cloth standard with leather as an option. Also, AWD isn't necessary in markets like the Southeast or Southwest. Xenons have been stand-alone options on other BMW models for years. Judging by the comments others have made about this, I would think that it's greater than 5% who would like the option.
