Researching the heck out of this vehicle and remain quite drawn in. Last night, however, I was reading Alex Roy's blog and he talks about how it costs as much to keep and maintain his M3W as it did to purchase. I'm sure that's an exaggeration, but it got me to thinking. The warranty is 30 mo, so routine maintenance during that time is one cost. Repairs after 30 months is another. Biggest worry would be if I get rear-ended or otherwise in a collision...how would insurance handle major repairs, as I assume we are talking about shipping from the US back to Malvern? Of course, every opportunity has costs, and perhaps I have been too optimistic about 2015/2016 models having had the kinks worked out...
