meh, I've been driving BMW's for 12 years, and have had no significant issues. Couple little things here and there fixed on warranty, otherwise the only out of warranty repair I can recall is a water pump where the impeller cracked. Roughly have of those 12 years I've been driving one that's out of warranty. Problems with BMW's are vastly exaggerated. And it's more than just anecdotal on my part. Between my dad, bro and I we've owned close to 20 of them in the past 30 years and the problems have been minimal. Except for the bro's M1. But that's a nearly 40 year old, hand built supercar, so no shit.

I've had 2 BMW's and my X5 was a total pile of crap while my 335 was fine. Success rate: 50%

My dad has a BMW bike with the same problem. Also i question their design. Had to remove the fucking gas tanm to replace the battery.

I don't have to remove the tank, but I do have to remove a side panel which is about 20 hex nuts. Pain in the ass. I got a trickle charger that has a lead I can put right on the battery and is accessible if I take off the seat, which is easy.

Everyone knows BMW's are pieces of shit that last exactly until anything electrical breaks. That's why you lease them and never buy it out.

I bought a 335i for about 47 grand. Modded the chip and it had about 390hp, did a 0-60 in under 5s. Loved the car.
BMW realized the 335i, with the n54 twin turbo engine, was as fast, or faster, than the m3, but half the price. So they modded the n55's turboes down, chunked the n54 altogether in later years, and the updated n55 was a much slower engine.
Selling that car was a mistake since the n54 was scrapped. It was fun to drive, fairly luxurious, great handling, fast as hell, and relatively cheap for a luxury car. Really good blend between sporty/comfort.

My wife purchasing "Fruit Roll-Ups" after I specifically tell her to buy "Fruit by the Foot"
Instead of admitting her mistake she attempts to argue with the assertion that "They are pretty much the same thing" when we're all aware of the superiority of the Fruit by the Foot over the Fruit Roll-Up
This has happened several times
