The thing that I both like and dislike about power seats is that there are essentially an infinite number of positions. With manual seats you can quickly slot your seat into your known preferred position. With electric seats I have to have a memory setting or else I'll never get it back to the way I want it if someone messed with the seat position. Even then, I still find myself tinkering with my seat position.
the black Touring has manual, leather, heated sport seats. the positive feeling of the adjustments is nice for sure, but they actually don't go as low as the M3 power seats, interestingly enough.
