That's great they are buying it back.
Yeah, I can see why you're conflicted about getting another one.
I don't know.
If you're leasing maybe go ahead and give the S4 a try, and hopefully BMW will finally get the 3 series right in the next couple years.
Any interest in the ATS?
Of course, it too is a new model, and will likely have teething issues.
C class has received good reviews in terms of driving experience.
That's another great alternative if you want to stay with German.
If your buying instead of leasing, then I'd have the dealer and/or BMW throw in the extended 6yr/100k warranty for your troubles, and to help keep the fear of long term ownership a bit less concerning.
Good luck. Let us know what you decide.
