Unless the leather is specific to M cars, I think that is down almost entirely to the quality of the leather. I think it's extremely poor - thin, overly soft and very easy to wear away in normal use.
At least it's better than Dakota, which seems to have been sourced from an Elephant's arse. Doesn't wear the miles well, either.

Excessive bolster wear, in BMW, seems par for the course since the 60's!

My 14 year old E39 hardly has any signs of wear. Good hard wearing leather it seems.
