BMW brake pad options

I thought BMW used to offer an upgraded brake pad as an option, but two dealers I've spoken to reckon I'm imagining things! Am I?

I believe that they did indeed offer an upgrade.

As far as I know they were Pagid Orange but with a BMW part no.

The car is booked in with BMW for inspection II and wanted to get the brake pads done at the same time. I thought if I could get some BMW approved Pagids I'd just just get them to fit them at the same time. However, BMW will probably have a 100% mark up so may well end going aftermarket.

Cheers
