Sounds like a must have! Thanks for that!

Are there ways to remove w/ coding, if no option on sticker?

Again great to know. I am 6'4" and the current car is a little tight on the bolstering but needs to be to keep you in place. guess I should sit in a few.

While that is very informative its also disappointing to hear due to the 2022 refresh and due to the fact my new job requires you to have a car within 5 years old so trying to extend the time frame until I'll need to replace again.

Ok adding to list. Makes a BIG difference in the 440i.

Guess time will tell! I'm sure there is a buyer somewhere who will find this to be just as exciting as I did!
Thanks again for the insights!
