Regarding multi contour seats, are you still looking at videos and pictures only or are you looking at order guides and talking with dealers? If only looking at pictures, I think you're making assumptions that may or may not end up true. Also, you're in Canada where you get different options than the US. The Welt product specialist I spent 45 minutes with sitting in and looking around the i5 M60 shook his head in disbelief when I told him Canada and US often use different product options. He assumed all NA was the same. I didn't notice which seats I sat in other than they were black veganza and didn't ask for clarification of the multi-function/multi-contour, etc.

Back to the seats... on the US BYO site the i5 M60 states the standard seats are "Power Multi-contour front seats including power backrest width adjustment and thigh support, as well as power head restraint height". That's width vs upper backrest angle as in my G30 multi-contour seats. The order guide also lists "456 Multi-contour seats" as standard on M60 and optional on eDrive 40. Mine are the 456 Multi-contour seats and also have side bolster width adjustment, but not on the articulated upper backrest width. It's possible G60 multi-contour now means upper backrest width rather than upper backrest angle. Even if this is a change, it requires a button to control it on the seat. If you don't see that extra adjustment button on the main seatback button, it's not multi function or multi contour. And as we know, some features are not available at launch due to supply chain issues. Pretty normal for BMW and many product manufacturers.
