Heated Steering Wheel

If you get the cold-weather package in the 07 e93 is the steering wheel heated or was that option only added for 09?

Thanks!

Only for 09. It's wasn't available on the e9x prior to this year.

It's not worth $4,030......LOL

I equipped a 2k9 online exactly like my 2k7, and the list price was $4,030 more. The only difference was the heated steering wheel....

The X3 that I got as a loaner had it. Nice, but I felt it wasn't a big deal. Cooled seats would be worth $4,030, though!

C'mon now, that statement is misleading. The price increase for 2k9 (and even post July 08 2k8) models was due to the weakening dollar and not just corporate greed. Yes, you can be pissed about having to pay extra for options that were once standard (cough, Logic7, cough), but to say that the only difference between an 07 and 09 prices is one feature and leave out what's been happening in the real world is a bit disingenuous of you.
