Is full merino leather really full merino leather?

Someone told me that the upper dashboard on a 760 is sensatec even if you order full merino leather.

True?

I find it hard to believe. If you order full merino leather for an M3, you actually get full merino leather everywhere including the upper dashboard.

I would assume that full leather would be available and even standard for the flagship model.

Thanks in advance.

Great. Thanks for the response. For the 760, the executive package isn't available. So now I'm wondering if that's already included or not and if what you're saying applies to the 760.

That ridiculous of course its not sensatec merino is the highest quality leather bmw offers and the 760 is pretty much the most exclusive bmw for sale there is no way the dashboard is sensatec especially if you have the merino package.

This is Nappa leather , not merino leather. The merino is specified only for the upholstery. At least that's what I know.
