My new buddy Dolph and I were just chatting by phone, and the topic came up of "Have all the major bugs been ironed out"? I think they have (cracked frames, compensator failures, bevel box upgrades, cracked headers, etc.) My question is about upgraded or 2014+ cars...any high mileage ones around to see if the "fixes" are long term fixes? Will the improved systems hold up to high mileage? Seems like many M3Ws, like motorcycles, don't get used as much as other vehicles. So...whatcha got?

~ 8500 KM / 5300 Miles since Aug 14. No problems so far except some loose screws (3 out of 4 on the oil tank!) and a squeaking belt.
Steel enjoy every trip...

Ken, forgot to ask you this morning, but how many miles were showing on yours when you first picked it up at your dealer?

Always happy Sometimes happy with more than 20.000km on the clock. Last issue was the necessity to exchange a faulty ECU. Have got a new steel sprocket at my expense (big improvement!!). Frame upgrade was done recently but I had to pay for a full service after 500km. The original fuel pump is still operating - so I expect it will brake sooner or later.

Approximately 37000km and the engine always getting better and better, it easily reaches the fuel cut in 4 'speed without paying attention to the rev counter, lapping at sinthèse oil must be finished.
The fun always remained intense since the first meters traveled.
