As I said in another thread, this is simply not true. Well, I should say that it isn't true in markets where the full option list has been revealed. We aren't sure yet if it will also hold true for the US, but I strongly suspect it will.

In other words, if you do not opt for one of the lines, in contrast to how it is today, instead of being able to select from four (more actually, when you include priority one) different leather colors, you will only have the choice between two. Similarly, instead of being able to select from four different interior trims, you'll only have the choice of two.

Sure, you could just order one of the lines if you want more. The lines do offer great value and open you up to a world of variety and options. But they force specific combinations on you as well.

For the record I am not complaining. I am merely trying to keep it real.
