I did a search about this and didn't find very much. I noticed that this $180 on the latest price sheet for the E92. I understand that this has been a BMW tradition since the 90's. But I can't find any reference to it on the 06 price list. It doesn't seem like it is optional.
So, what is BMW's explanation for it?
And, how come it is not on the 06 price sheet? Did I just miss it, or was it bundled with something else. If it was not there, how come they added it back?
