its also another reason i think you should lease 40k+ cars to plan for possible events like these.
Yes bmw and your insurance won't acknowledge resale value lost from it but the market will. Just like we all know your insurance will usually only acknowledge 10% in diminished value from a accident but in real life its much higher. i would higher a lawyer and fight to have them buy it back. |

also to the guys comparing race engines to street engines, you cant make that comparison. Its more difficult to design a engine for street use then for racing.
A race engine only has to last one race and is maintained by the top 1% of engineers and mechanics. A street engine has to last at least 100k with no or minimal maintenace by probably the bottom 30% of mechnically inclined ppl and thats being generous. Even the President of Delphi said that its more difficult to design a regular car part to last 100k no maintence then a race engine part. |

Warmed up properly and run at full temperature is a designer dream. And a race part get's looked after by people that know what they're doing. |

Engine has been replaced... I'm awaiting a solution that makes me happy from BMW NA before I take the car back. The dealership has put 110 miles on the car since I dropped it off... Some before the swap to troubleshoot, and the rest after. How many miles do they need to test a new engine ffs!
