If I am going to spend 40k+ on a car, I'm going to get the exact car I want.
I know leases are a different story, and I get that BMW is ripping us off for a lot of the options. But if I am going to spend this much, I don't want to live the next four years, or even 4 minutes regretting an option I didn't get.
Just my 2 cents.

its a valid point. i always think about it as a "well do i really care about this or not". i mean money is still money. i tend to buy all my cars but i get a new one every 3-4 years. so i always think of it as money id rather spend on something else or roll into my next car. i mean i can afford $2000 more. but $2000 buys a lot of drinks and other toys.
it all depends on how much money you have and all your other expenses if something is worth $X or not.
