BMW is very good at stonewalling customers.

Yikes...newer BMW's.

The shaft driven ones have final drive spline failures that cost $2,000.
My buddy got stranded in Death Valley from this.
BMW still is not recognizing them as faulty.

So, Either waste your motor's head with the Honda or your body's head with the BMW....I'll take the Honda.
