Doesn't anybody thinks that it is a little bit cheap that when you ordered electric adjustable seats the leg extension does not move electric but you have to change it manually?

This is the only minor part of the sport seats.

Doesn't bother me. I only use mine for long distance drives. I believe 5 series and up gives you electric thigh extensions.

The only M3/4 F series that has adjustable thigh support is the convertible

I have the manual adjustment on my M3 and 335 GT. It does not bother me, and I do use it.

I also have to move the headrest manually, which I did not on my E70 X5 with comfort seats. Now the lack of comfort seats, that REALLY bothers me, lol.

Have that in my m235i and it doesn’t bug me at all. I really appreciate the extra thigh support—makes the seats great for long distance driving.

I use it always, especially by longer rides.
But if you have fully electric seats this alsobshould be electric adjustable, my opinion.

Not a mist have but a really nice to have.

Yeah, the F Pace S had electric controls for the thigh supports and they were nicely configured (and seats very comfortable). But my biggest complaint about the BMW design (since it realistically isn't something I fiddle with) is that it creates a pocket for stuff (and dust) to accumulate in.

I have an x30i with Mocha, and the mats/carpeting are black.

I've replaced the (standard) mats with Weathertech liners for better protection.

I think the M40i would be the same. Normally, I always get a black interior. I'm going to order a 2019 X3 M40i in alpine white and I'm thinking of going with the mocha interior. Also may go with the fineline cove matt finish wood for the inside trim. My current X3 M40i with blue exterior has the black with blue stitching and the gray poplar wood. I don't like the glare that comes off the poplar woods gloss finish.

I have the Mocha w/Fineline cove, and I really like the matte finish. The wood is textured, and you can see the pores. Having less shiny trim is a huge plus, too.

Looks great I think the Rhombic Aluminium looks brilliant in person, has a great texture and suits the car well
