Unhappy Satellite radio available without premium package?

I am looking at ordering a 335i Sport Line with several packages and options. For various reasons I just do not want the sunroof so I will not be ordering the premium package. I would, however, like the satellite radio and comfort access. At the Team USA Experience drive, I was told the satellite radio is a dealer installed extra, but I can't find it that way on Bmwconfig. Does anybody have any insight into this? I assume There isn't any way to get comfort access either because I've been told there are special sensors on the door handles that cars without the premium package don't get. Anyone know about this?

Thank you.

As far as I understood it for '13--the Sunroof is STD in the 335i. Are you looking at 2012 model years? I don't like it either and I was told at the recent Olympic Drive event that they will probably not allow a "sunroof Delete" option for the 335i in 2013. I know that Satellite radio prep is included also for '13, but not sure what that means. Maybe others on the board here can shed some light.

the sunroof is part of premium package for MY13 for 335i! I made sure of that! It is not a "sunroof delete" option. So if you don't want it and don't care about or can do without other parts of the ZPP you don't have to get a sunroof! But I would like a few elements of the ZPP.

Unfortunately it was my experience at the Team USA Drive that many of the BMW NA people are not completely sure about which options and packages are available for which MY.
According to the MY13 ordering guide - 403 - Moonroof - is standard on 335i

And now I see that the pricing for ZPP is lower for the 335i apparently because the moonroof is standard. Very disappointing. I don't know how I was so sure I could get the 335i without a moonroof. Oh well, no 335i for me.

The BMW configurator did show the moonroof was part of ZPP - and now, unfortunately, that has been corrected. A search of this forum shows that. I guess I can't put as much faith in the configurator as I thought I could. Does anybody know where it comes from? It is a useful tool even with that mistake!
