Premium Pkg 2 Question

bmwboi · 12-11-2010, 08:52 AM

I have been thinking about getting a car without Premium 2 Pkg as I want manual seats and I get the other options from the Premium 2 Pkg individually. My only concern is the auto dimming mirrors. I see on the bmwusa website that the auto dimming rearview mirror is standard; however, can you only get auto dimming side mirrors as part of the Premium 2 Pkg? Thanks

Edit: Just saw this thread:http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=463305

It didn't come up when i did a search. Sorry for pretty much the same post.

I was reading the standard features on the M3's. It actually lists Automatic Seats as a Standard feature. Not sure why its listed under the premium package as well. Also if you look at actually pictures of M3's with the Sport Cloth seats (what you get when you don't buy the premium package) you can obviously see the automatic seat buttons.

Back and forward motion are manual, I believe. Bolsters and that extension under your thigh is automatic or power.

So here is one post showing the manual seats on a 2011.5.. http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthr...ht=sport+cloth

I was trying to find the other pictures I saw of speed cloth seats that had automatic controls but haven't found them yet. Maybe those were pre 2011.5? Maybe BMW removed them to cut costs. Not a big deal as how many times do you adjust your seat.. me, practically never.
