And let me add that it never fails to amaze me how "resourceful" -- i.e., xxxxxxx cheap -- German automobile manufacturers can be in charging for equipment one would reasonably would expect to find included in the cost of a premium car. Another example is charging for a backup camera in 2017, a item that has been standard equipment on a Toyota Corolla for at least two years.
Yes, a feature like backup camera should be standard, but you in the US still get the BMW's with the most equipment standard. At least compared to Europe, not sure about the Asian market.

Take a look at the German pricelist to see all the options that costs extra that you get standard. The drawback for you is that you can't customize the car from factory like in Germany.
