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.
