Sport exhaust, but no MSport exhaust, suspension, perhaps different wheels, bit more power and some extra bits here and there.

Essentially, very little extra cost for BMW beyond simple R&D, and a $10k price to the customer.

Gross margin, anyone???
You hit on the point on why I don't think CCBs will be part of the CP package simply because CP is a great money maker for BMW, a little SW tune and some cheap suspension upgrades and they charge $$$$ for it. But if BMW include CCBs, it will make the package too expensive for most buyers and they will likely bypass the package and in turn BMW will miss out making some easy money.

CCBs aren't part of CPs in the past and I don't see why BMW would start now.
