Instead they just give us the most vanilla offerings possible.

And one other thing, why does BMW make you get a larger vehicle to get better and extended leather? I don’t need the size of a 5 series or X5, but those interiors are SO much better. Charge $3k for nice extended leather in a 3 series and I’d get it.
Agreed! That said your remark goes for the X5 as well despite the fact that it's built in the US, which is mind-blowing to me. There are many options available in Europe (where I'm from) that are not in the US (where I live). To be fair the price point is also MUCH lower here in the US than in my country of origin - without even taking into account the outrageous $53k green tax (yes you read that right) - so I can't really complain about it 😋
