Pretty sure only the US (if it's due to the take-rate). I can't imagine BMW would get away with something like that, say, in Germany.
I get the idea of a low take-rate of specific options but let's not forget that the customer pays quite a lot for a BMW in the first place. We are not talking Honda or Kia here where on size fits it all. The X7 is a luxury vehicle and you expect luxury options to be available and the few that actually pick them pay far more for them than what they actually cost for that particular build - so in other words, you are already paying for the low take rate.
Now, if there is a supply-issue, it's a completely different story and excusable.
