agreed. THere's also enough spare and broken out parts out there that you can keep it like new indefinitely.

My 180K 540I still uses ZERO oil. Just don't ask (axe) me about leaking intake manifolds or trans rebuilds- BTDT.

You will never appreciate what a BMW is good for (vs. a transportation appliance) until you hit triple digits...
