-option for remote start
-better quality sun visors
-wider wheel/tire options. (only so that it's easier to fit wider aftermarket rims)



I'm hoping for most of these for when my lease is up this coming February!!

fingers crossed
Lighter weight would probably result in a noisy cabin, along with other problems. It's a BMW, not a Subaru. If you want a lighter car, while sacrificing in-cabin quality, buy one of those instead.

The wheel options are relatively similar to other models offered by BMW.

BMW is fairly firm with the run-flats.

Auto-dimming mirrors are optional IIRC. Simply do not add the premium package.
