The dealer said similar things about SatNav to me - the example he pulled was someone with a top end petrol X5 and no SatNav and how much less they were offered below book price - I am not convinced it was a valid comparisons though to a mid/lower end X3

If you loose less than £2.5K when you trade it because you don't have that option you have saved and 2.5K is a "serious" lot of resale value lost - i.e. does it loose as much as it costs (I find salesman's adding up can be less than accurate/honest)
