Yes. You have very limited options.
One part of the truth is because they want to control the aftermarket business and protect their own companies. If a customer wants a performance package, then he should go with the factory options and nothing else. The other part of the truth is that the day to day driving conditions are much more demanding. Most of the cars worldwide will not see
in public (not in race tracks) the abuse they see here in the autobahn with the no speed limits. So, they want to control what owners change on their cars for safety reasons. If you search deeper, maybe these two are connected. The second is a kind of excuse, but the main reason is the first. Anyway ...
