Never seen any with seats like this before. Pic in profile thing. TIA. Sorry to not know anything about the car I just bought. Still waiting on delivery too. Can't wait. __________________ 1______ /l ,[____], l---L –[]lllllll[]- ()_) ()_)----)_) | | | 01-28-2006, 06:37 AM | #2 | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2005 Location: UK Posts: 312 | They're the half leather sports seats, standard with the 'sport' pack. Nice car btw. | | | 01-28-2006, 06:43 AM | #3 | Junior Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Hot Springs, AR Posts: 27 | Thank you for the quick reply. So what is the stuff in the middle like? And whats with the M stuff(new pictures just added). Guy I got it from is a dealer but knows nothing about the accesories. 1 owner from South Carolina, Carfax and all that so I trust the car, just wish I knew more about the features. __________________ 1______ /l ,[____], l---L –[]lllllll[]- ()_) ()_)----)_) | | | 01-28-2006, 06:51 AM | #4 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | cloth middles, leather outers. there's also an extendable bit at the front bottom of the seat for thigh support. bolsters are bigger to hold you in the seats better when you're cornering and such. the "M" bits are from BMW's motorsports division. they put them on the M-badged cars and some find their way down into other models. on the ti's, i believe the following m bits made it in: 1) Suspension - struts, shocks, springs, sway bars 2) body - front/rear bumpers, mirrors, side mouldings, side skirts. there were some optional bits too: m-tech rear spoiler and roof spoiler 3) interior - steering wheel, seats forget if there's anything else ... __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles current mods: bilstein sports, bavauto springs, e30 m3 LCABs, solid metal ball joints, bavauto RSMs w/reinforcements, e30 3.73 LSD & halfshafts, supersprint cat-back exhaust, turner rear sway bar reinforcements, IE poly subframe & RTABs + camber/toe kits, powdercoated e36 32x front calipers, sport mirrors, H&R 28mmF/19mmR sway bars, x-brace, auto solutions SSK w/poly bushing upgrade, BMW CD43 head unit, DICE HD Radio w/iPod integration and "stealth" HD antenna, staggered style 68s, orange electronic TPMS, leather arm rest, JT Designs metal undertray acquired and awaiting install: heated seat kit, cali top switch relo, lumbar support kit, park distance control kit, heated washer nozzle kit, m-coupe rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, and halfshafts, m-coupe front/rear brakes with master cylinder, under hood light kit, mud flaps, rear sun blind, auto-dimming rear view mirror, tilt steering wheel retrofit, apexcone 5000K HIDs with 55W ballasts ![](image.php?s=5b62c25351ad0b1e987382b7c152e359&u=1131&type=sigpic&dateline=1197516154) 2002 X5 4.4 Sport Package, 53.5k miles Current Mods: e46 m3 steering wheel | | | 01-28-2006, 07:01 AM | #5 | Junior Member Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Hot Springs, AR Posts: 27 | Man you guys know your cars!!
