My title says it all, but to elaborate, it's disappointing that a premium automobile such as a BMW would have issues like these. On my 328Ci, there were plenty of these little annoyances, such as the door sill trim falling apart in hot, humid weather or the laminating over the wood grain cracking and spider-webbing. Just a bit ridiculous for what was a $46,000 car when new. Now I'm learning that my new, beautiful M-Sport that I haven't even seen yet and that I've been looking forward to driving when I got home from deployment may already have rusty seat bottoms from inferior parts. Not right at all. It makes me wonder where else BMW has skimped to keep costs down...
