Is it possible to do a Seat swap from a 2006 e90 to 2014 M235i ???

I’m currently shopping a used CPO 2014 M235i.
One vehicle I’m looking has the standard seats, while my old 2006 330xi (230,000 lovely miles thank you very much...) it will replace has Sport seats. I’m curious whether a swap might be possible? Is this a realistic consideration or am I wasting my time thinking about it?

Interesting...I wasn't aware that you can get non-sport seats in an M235i, which has all the M-Sport extras including seats as standard equipment. Sounds like the previous owner of that vehicle may have swapped out the seats for the standard ones. I'd avoid that car.

standard seats is definitely not an option on the m235i. previous owner must have swapped them.

i would just get an m235i that already has the sport seats and save yourself the headache.
