Expected on the 7th of April. It can't come quick enough. Doesn't help am looking at them every minute online.
was really shocked that bluetooth doesn't come as standard.

You can track it if you really want to......and almost everything on a BMW is extra.  They aren't otherwise known as 'Breaks My Wallet' without good reason. :-[

Is the comfort seats better than the sports seats. And what's the main difference on the facelift.

Comfort seats are much more.....well.....comfy and have more adjustments.  If like me you have spinal issues then they really are very comfortable for long runs.

Main differences were the LED halos and the option of full LED lighting with the adaptive main beam 'assist' system that uses a camera to turn lights off main beam only when needed.  There's on on line video on YouTube that shows them working.  Snipez99 had them on his M50D and they were very cool - but only the LED version does it.

Other than that it was really minor cosmetics.  Changes to rear lights, repositioned front fogs.  A lot of facelift kit can be put straight onto pre-facelift.
