I think in a few years (my 530e is just 11 months old) a 340i with Merino leather may be in the cards for me. I like a smaller car but also want the surface I interface with every time to be a nice one. I have the Nappa leather now and would not want to go back to the standard choices.
New Vernasca leather feels powdery soft. You should check. Much better feeling than old Dakota.

Its definitely softer. Should just be standard though like Audi makes it. Just didn't feel like a $1700 upgrade from sensatec.

Wouldn't matter, by the time they make leather standard, they'll also increase the base price by like $1500, but I doubt the former will happen, the latter though, guaranteed by the time the LCI comes out.

It was the first on an M3 or an M4

Does anyone know if these "Full" fine-grain Merino leather interiors will include upper and lower dashes covered in leather as well as door tops and center console sides? This would be a game changer IMHO

I hope so, but I have a feeling that BMW is only going to limit the leather to the seats and the center parts of the door panels. I would love to see leather on the upper door panels and dashboard though!!

Does anyone have any info on how extensive the leather areas will be with the merino leather on the G20? Will this include thigh area of center console, lower/upper dash and door tops? I sure hope so. I sat in the new 330i and the sides of the center console was hard plastic and I was instantly disappointed. They could at least put padded soft touch or something. Felt quite cheap.

In Germany €4500 and in Netherlands €2995. But the latter is probably a mistake, does not make real sense.

I hate that quilted seat design. It reminds me of the couch my grandmother had when I was a child.
