It's merino leather, so no.

I am buying my cars fully loaded. I am not comparing with a base vehicle as is not what I am looking for. I don’t lease, I buy cash.

I was looking at a fully loaded Portimao Blue that they have on the floor with all the same performance parts installed on it and it was priced at $80,200

In the meantime I have reserved the M Performance Model which I ended up buying at $84,200.
So for me, 4-5000 more for this one was a no brainer as I get a German car, Individual Paint, M seatbelts, Merino leather and unique 20” wheels. Only the wheels are over $4,000.

Yes, this edition comes with red Merino leather but not sure if offered in Us as this is an edition for the Canadian market.

Right so it makes sense in your case...

Question, you stated that individual paintwork was unavailable without this package. Is this a Canada only restriction? Because I've seen Individual San Marino Blue, Java Green, Nardo Grey, Hockenheim Silver, Oxford Green, Purple Silk, etc G20s.

BMW USA is probably leaving room for the LCI. I bet that's when we'll see Marino G20 in the 'states.

But one can dream and wish they were available. They do look rather beautiful, especially in red.

I've had a hard time understanding why there are "Canadian" options for BMW that cannot be had down here in the United States. I mean seriously, we're all part of North America so it makes very little sense to me. Something as trivial as a special color for example. WTH? Like someone said about the Merino leather option as well... makes no sense.

For the record, I noticed differences with MB as well. Certain combination of packages available in Canada but not in the US. We always get the shaft.

In Canada we typically get less "a la carte" package options compared to the US, and we get shafted on the price...not to mention your lease amounts are like half the cost of ours. I'd rather have less options but way lower pricing like you guys have.

Yeah, you have a point there. However, I still don't get why we can't have other kinds of options like the Merino leather for example. We also don't get that side "M" badge on the car. LOL. Actually I'm glad we don't. Gasoline is probably still more expensive there too, huh?

It sure is! Cost of living overall is more here, and generally wages are similar (so your money goes further). I used to live in North Carolina and it's crazy how cheap everything is compared to living in Toronto.
