That's very possible. The early demo cars that came over here weren't fully US-spec. Some models had option combinations that can't be ordered here or were missing features that are standard on US cars (M multi-function seats), so it's not too much of a stretch to think that they may have had features that aren't available here. Happened with the seat bolsters, after all. Or maybe that feature was originally planned and got cut from all worldwide specs right before official production started.
