One potential benefit of a Tesla is that it doesn't have many of the types of parts that regularly break in BMWs, and even if something breaks, the repair process is not as complex. The whole thing is very modular, conceptually closer to a desktop PC. Of course, it'll take a few years to get statistically relevant data, but I'm cautiously optimistic.

LOL....I'm a Brit...we call 'em Beamers! Anyhow...I work on my own cars...always have. Only time I go to the Indy is for State Inspection. If a Tesla breaks you are totally dependent on Tesla for a fix. Given how much trouble the company is in I would not be remotely optimistic. Bankwuptcy as Musk joked only 6 months ago is a very real possibility...they will be out of cash by December unless they can get a LARGE cash infusion to finance another 12 months of cash burn.
