I have a question, I pulled up the 2005 option sheet posted in the information section, It shows Priority option #453 Ventilated Seats.
Is that really an option in the US?
Thanks

 

Well it is on my car. Actually it better be since I payed for it.

 

Can It be ordered with comfort seats?

 

I did.

 

Yep, it's an option and can be ordered with comfort seats!

 

I will be picking mine up in three days. You have to order the Nasca leather to get the ventilated seats but comfort seats are not required. If your going to spend the $$ for the Nasca and ventilation you might as well fork over a little more for teh comfort seats.

 

Yes, I did today. I spent the $1200 for the better leather seats.
I was told it is the same seats as the 7 series.
I wonder why you have to lose the heated steering wheel and front headlight washers?

 

silly question but has anyone tried the ventilated seats and do they work well?

 

I was pretty mad about this. But basically the ordering system would not allow my dealer to order the Cold Weather package. There is no reason for it, and BMW customer service was no help in answering either. And since we(US) don't have the ability to order some of the options seperately, could not add just those features.

 

You are correct! What is the reason we can not have heated steering wheel with vented seats? Makes no sence to me either.
Good question, has anyone tried the vented seats?
