Every time I went out in it it seemed to cost me a grand Radiator blew, suspension failed, cats went....etc. Never again would I own a BMW outside of warranty, let alone an M3. It's just sods law that things always start to fail when you're on the wrong side of the warranty period.
Sorry, that's my point but I can see why you thought I was disagreeing... But I totally agree that I doubt I'd have any modern car that was still worth a good chunk of money without it being covered by a decent warranty.
