Thanks! I don't think in Canada EHI has the 4 series in its fleet even though all BMWs appear to be dealer bought. Speaking of seats, did the Audi A4 come with an adjustable seat bolster or did you find the bolsters tight/sporty enough? For these GXAR cars, I really adjustable tight seat bolsters to drive around corners. The 2022 BMW 330i at EHI in Canada sadly got rid of the adjustable seat bolster and the new 2022 seat designs is less comfortable too with the new padding (the 2021 had adjustable seat bolsters and better back support padding). Apparently BMW had gotten rid of the adjustable seat bolster in return for adjustable lumbar support on the 2022 330is.
