I have them in Napa. Again, I'm not an ///M owner but the seats must be the same.

As far as I know the only way to get them in an M is with the Active ventilated seat option. Well in the US anyways.

What is it about them that you prefer? Are they more supportive or is the leather just better quality?

The power width adjustment in the side bolsters is worth it to me. In an M the leather is Merino but in a regular E70/E71 the upgraded Nappa leather is a much softer smoother leather than the Nevada. I had it in my old E70 and though it looks and feels much nicer it wears much quicker and creases easier than the Nevada. Just my $.02.

I agree, The 4.8 that I test drove had nappa leather with comfort seats. They felt much nicer and seat felt great. The M seats are nice but a touch below in quality and features IMO.

I don't have the comfort seats in my X5M.

It's a tough call. Nevada is more durable, but it would be nice to get adjustable seat bolsters.. IMO, its uncool that any /// car doesn't have side bolster adjustments. My wife's 335xi sport package has them for goodness sakes.

I didn't feel like the comfort/nappa seats were worth the money.

I have them and like em...I did not compare with the non-comfort seats though so I can't really tell you if they are better.

Exactly, I could not justify the extra money for comfort seats particularly since they were tied too ventilated seats. Like you said, this car should come with the best seat available
