Paddle shifters not standard?
 

Hey guys,
New to the forums and to BMW. I'm about to lease a new g30, test drove one the other day and noticed that the car did not have paddle shifters.

Reading the documentation, reviews online, and looking at the BMW configurator it would appear that paddle shifters should be standard on all g30 cars.

The car we test drove was a 530i xdrive with no m-sport package. I talked with the sales rep and he informed me that the paddle shifters only come on models with the m-sport package. Can someone confirm that this is the case? Furthermore, does anyone know the configuration options for paddle shifters? It is not listed on the purchase guide

Edit: should also mention that I'm based in Canada, as US models configurations may be different
