What's the deal with Luxury line $5200 in options/pkgs

I wonder what Luxury line really "includes".

the moment you select it, it adds premium package, good!

Luxury line itself is $2100 and I can't figure out what do you get that is worth $2100 there. Premium package is $3100 on a 328i, all good.

Basically Luxury line costs you $5200 as the minimum additional(Premium + Luxury line tax).

Maybe someone who own or is more familiar can explain what are you really paying for in that $2100. Leather seats are part of the Premium package anyway. There is no performance suspension or anything else which may explain the deficit. Is the interior any different from other 'Lines' in dash inserts, fit and finish?

In retrospect, such is the story with every line except they have something substantial included.

Thanks guys!

Different bumpers, wheels, different guages, keys, different steering wheel, chrome accents inside and out. You also get special piping on the leather I believe. That is all I could think off.

So basically you get nothing standard with a 328i No Line. and It is still quite a substantial amount of money... lol

Leather upholstery is such a mis representation, because it adds premium package for that anyway.

Thanks, the length of the list makes it look better in the least

They are definitely minute details (except for the wheels which IMO are #1 reason for going Luxury line) for $2100 but I love my Luxury line 328. It's much nicer looking than a no line.
