I hear you. But I also understand the reality is Sensatec and Leather are options which have a fixed dollar value as options which affect the MSRP of the vehicle for new sales, resale and insurance purposes. How can the car manufacturer deal with these changes when no price point has been set for an option in the US? They won't just pull a number out of a hat and they can't take the equivalent price using a Euro to USD conversion based on the price on a German spec car. What shows up on the sticker?
