I've owned/leased 6 BMWs since 2006: two 5's, one 3, the i8, the M6 and the X5. I daresay that I've saved enough on maintenance to cover the cost of the 3 over the last 10 years.
This is a major difference for serial owners like myself and, indeed, my entire family. Collectively we own 12 BMWs among 7 individuals. Thought I love the driving dynamics of BMWs, I would be forced to look at other brands if the free maintenance went entirely away.

I dropped my maserati ghibli when I found out I had a $4,000 break and rotor job coming up at 14,000 miles. If Bmw makes me pay for maintenance , then might as well have any other car. Lexus , Mercedes, audi , maserati .. There's no reason to stay loyal to Bmw .
