That may be as fine as the stats go.

Another Avenue is BMW in Germany. They know exactly. I’m not sure the correct avenue to get that information, but if you have a good relationship with your dealer, they may be able to help.

probably SUPER rare
 

I just came across a very unusual TI. 98 Slicktop 5spd with leather and heated seats in Seinna Red or Byzanz. Couldn't pop the hood to see. Tried to buy it but so far no luck.

Do we have any specific info on the Canadian cars? I came across a 99 in British Columbia and it was a base, not M Sport. It must be super rare. Also, I’m going to assume Canadian cars came standard with heated seats.

That car could have been an import. Canada only requires 15 years old to be exempt from import restriction that we have to wait 25 years for.

I could be wrong but I believe the NA data includes Canada, so there is something unusual there.
