Thanks for your perspective. Certainly BMW would not let this pass QC unless it was designed this way. I guess I'm just not a fan of this "design". Usually I'm a big fan of BMW design but maye you're right and I was just looking for something to be mad about.

I took the time to research wrinkles-by-design in car seats and ran accross this BMW-sponsored paper. Interesting stuff.
