He had no explanation. So I guess we will have to see. But I don't think the seats will be coming since this is the second Performance car I've seen without them.


I also had an interesting conversation about Blackline tinted tail light lenes. Seems the EU laws have changed recently and BMW will not be offering Blacklines on its new models. It kind of sounded like a loop hole in the tail light laws has been changed here. So that was kind of a let down as well. He kind of made it sound like Blackline tail lights would stop soon doo to this EU law. ?

He did say that in February, 2014 that the LSD will start to be offered for sale thru the dealer network parts departments. No word on whether the LSD could be port installed after say an ED.

Thanks Dackel, great insight and help like always! I was hoping the upcoming 2er would have some sort of sportier seat option. I love the seats on the CLA 45 AMG. I would gladly pay the $2,300 option they charge. However, the $4,000 bmw wanted for their last performance seats was wayy too much and did not even come to the USA : (
