We do know that our cars sound better here...

So I made it actually through that video which is difficult with that voice. All options/features appears the same. The only difference I could tell is the Warning triangle (not available in the US) and the Display key which can be purchased but is not included in the US. I believe the 850's actually have that.

Right there with you on the voice but over time I've been able to overlook that as vs some of the more pompous YouTuber car reviewers. Interesting on the Warning Triangle as in my 2020 M850i I have it to the left of the master button to shut off all "assistance" features just like the video.

I also thought that the display key was still part of the M8/M8C package. It was part of the 2019 M850i's but dropped in the 2020s. Personally I was okay with that as I'd rather have two standard key fobs vs having to do with the size of the Display Key and the charging requirements.

Lastly if this isn't a personal owned Shmee mobile but a long-term loaner that diamond etching logo in the Carbon Fiber cup holder screams discount for the next owner if they are not a Shmee fan.

Sorry I wasn't clearer on the warning triangle. I am talking about a physical triangle that sits in the trunk of the car. In case the car is stopped on the shoulder, the driver is required to pull it out and place it a few hundred feet behind the car on the side of the road to warn people of the stopped car.

This option is default in Europe but deleted in the US (all brands). Not sure of the reason why...

As to the Shmee logo, it is likely only a sticker... Branding is everything for these guys.

Well, that will look much better than some foil. Cost is not relevant as he likely didn't pay for the car in the first place...
