There is a great reason for them to exclude these options (as well as luxury/style ones like multiple interior colors, upgraded leathers and adaptive cruise control): they want to create differential pricing for the M3/M4. Even though the cost of these vehicles may not vary much they want to position the more expensive M3/M4 as the choice for people who really want the cutting-edge options and have the means to pay to get them.
