Or, the manufacturers could sell every car "with mats"; maybe nice carpeted ones,
or all weather for the northern climes, or cheapazz budget mats for those buyers
that don't care. My comment is that it is remarkable that in $50G+ car, or even
in a $25G car, the mfg'r does not build in another ~$35 FIC for mats, as "standard".
The car guys want everyone to spend $3Gs per "package", of stuff some of us
don't want, and then ala carte basic such as "mats".
I got the nice carpeted mats, way back on our '01; they are showing some heel
wear on the driver's side, but still look good. How BMW can not put them in at
the assembly stage or leave it up to the dlr, is remarkable to me, from reading
current posts by people here, whom have recently taken delivery on a fairly
expensive purchase.
