With some patience you can find a nice used E70. I did.

BGM- bun warmers FTW! Definitely a "nice to have". I use them even in the Summer where they are great for your back on trips. They don't hurt first thing in the morning during the winter either.
Ha yeah I have heated seats--they are a "nice to have" here for the few days it's cold but definitely not a must like up north.
