You're not paying for leather--it might be the same stuff that's on the standard seats. Instead, you're paying for the power-adjustable bolsters and cooling.

The price is crazy high. BMW charges about $900 for a similar sport seat in its 3-Series Sport Package. Figure another $600 for the ventilation, and you're still far from $3,400. Then again, the BMW seats don't have the Recaro brand name (but the excellent seats in the Audi S4 do).
