If I'm not mistaken, ceramic controls option has never been offered by BMW on any M car or SUV

You obviously have not seen the new M6 Coupe.

Are you sure the M6 Coupe has them? It's not listed as an option and I don't remember seeing them on the M6 Coupe I sat in, though I wasn't looking for them either. Do you have an Order Guide that lists them as standard?

What purpose do ceramic controls serve?

It's just a cosmetic thing. It's a pewter / gunmetal look. Looks great.
