I'm only familiar w the Cdn premium pkg, so I'll have to rely on your (OP's) description of what the U.S. premium pkg entails. The ambient lighting (presumably outside and inside the doors) is really nice, but I wouldn't pay $2,300 just for that. However, leather is a must (especially if u wish to avoid a wall-to-wall-ceiling black interior like me (the Terra interior is awesome), and comfort access is also really convenient. U didn't mention whether it is an M235i or 228i, but regardless, I think it boils down to value. I would definitely go for the premium pkg (will increase resale or residual value). Now if your on a budget, stick to it. My first BMW had leatherette and no ambient lighting inside (only outside on door handles) and no comfort access, and it was just fine. Henceforth, I always go for leather, CA, ambient lighting, sunroof, etc. if you can afford it.
