Double Spoke 310 same price build vs after?

So in my constant, non-stop day dreaming about my 2012 that still hasn't entered production yet I was thinking...

If the beautiful 20" M double spoke 310's are $5542 to add to a build but cost the exact same amount to buy afterward on shopbmwusa.com that makes no sense.
http://www.shopbmwusa.com/ProductDet...ProductId=3466

It makes, absolutely, positively, insanely, crazy, no sense at all to pay the $5542 as an upgrade to a build because you are not getting any money for the rims that would have been there in the first place.

To put it another way, buy the X35i Msport, sell the brand new 369M's for $3-4k and buy the 310's for 5k and in the end it will only cost you 1-2k instead of 5k?

right?

weird...

Perhaps they hope people don't notice that, earn themselves some extra profit?

369Ms go for about 1.5-2k USD around (Classifieds, eBay, other forums). Just FYI.
