Would you rather the car be $64,xxx and have the roof standard?
BMW knows not 100% of buyers want a costly option and ensured the base price stayed low for those that don't.

I guess. However, in Canada the car comes STD w/ the plain steel roof. Carbon roof is $1,900 CAD and Glass Sunroof is $1,500 CAD. Only $400 CAD difference between the two.
In the US you get the Glass sunroof STD. I guess specific markets calculate their margins differently including possible loss leader options.
