[QUOTE="KingJay, post: 6257823, member: 56408"] It's worth it I guess. You get all the high tech gadgets and along with it all the problems. Over engineering. Ultimate driving machine? yes. When all is working right. Let's take the new twin turbo 6 cylinder (n54 engine). On a car with only 6k on the ODO, I have seen heavy carbon, sludge build up on the intake valves. Theses engines use direct injection. Fuel injection goes straight into the comb. chamber. No more fuel cleaning/cooling off the intake valves. Now on a car with only 6k imagine a car with 30k what kind of driveability complaints it will have. Burned intake valves? I can bet on it. When the 335 came out we have been replacing High pressure fuel pumps left and right. I remember they were on national backorder for the longest time. We had to take them off new cars on the lot and stick those in customers cars. These cars keep coming back with some kind of fuel system problem. Customers compaint of lack of power, no starts, running rough all due to some sort of fuel problem. These problems are just the begining. I can't wait for the cars to come in with alittle bit more mileage (30k+) and see what they bring in for us. But other than that these cars are great to drive, superior handling etc, etc. I would never buy a new BMW. BMW = CRAP IMO. [/QUOTE]
