Paddle shifters on 2011?
 

Paddle shifters are listed as standard on all 2011 X5 models except the diesel. Can anybody confirm this is correct?

Also, what's the story on the missing storage area cover on the Sport Activity model?

I haven't seen paddle shifters on any 35i...

There's a different thread about the luggage cover, it's not just Sport Activity, it's any 35i even with M-Sport.

No paddles except on the M version. Recently drove the 35i, 50i and M...

I'm amazed that it says "paddle shifters" there all this time, but no one (not a lot of people?) seriously complained that this is not true.

X5 M is the only one with pad shifters :(

I heard the 35i's don't include the luggage cover. I just bought a 35i and a 50i (don't ask why) and only the 50i came with the cover. We b#$* and whined to the dealer and they threw in the cover for the 35i.
