[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BMW’s aren’t what they used to be. I’d never dream of owning a current one (late 20-teens and newer) past the warranty period. There’s so much plastic in the induction side of the engines now (to save weight and manufacturing costs) and quality has slipped so far (because again, cheaping out) with things like cam chain tensioners and chain guides, that the engines simply won’t last as long as BMW’s of old used to, especially if driven hard (like they’re supposed to be). If you want a real BMW, get an 80’s or 90’s 3-series. They’re fully depreciated right now, so you can get one for almost nothing, and then spend $20k having it worked over by a BMW performance shop. You’ll have a MUCH better car, for less $$$ [/quote] I love our X7 and have had zero problems, but I sure miss my e21. [/quote]
