Totally agree.
What are the chances you still have to pay for an alarm??

The first standard BMW to feature them will be the next generation 7er that will be introduced in the Summer of 2015.
Again these will be optional equipment at high cost.

The 5er will follow with the next generation as will the next 6er and of course luxury SAV the X7. Again they will be optional to the customer.
It is not looking likely that Laser Headlights will be offered for the 4er or indeed M4 to customers as an option.
Are you confirming there will be an X7?
