Great car but still...

Oh and in general I think BMW's are GREAT cars too... IF you have about 10k anually to dump into all the freaking issues they have... AND if you know a mechanic that has TONS and TONS of experience and factory training... AND impossible to get diagnoses tools...

My gripe with BMW is almost all to do with their electrical systems... the wiring in those things is a NIGHTMARE... and the computers lock ANYONE but a dealer from doing any serious changes/fixes.

A buddy of mine picked up a 95 3 series and spent like 1k on it just after buying it fixing wiring problems...

Not as bad as audi... but pretty damn bad.

SUPER comfortable though... and GREAT chassis...

Man...if you think German cars are electrical nightmares, you've obviously never worked on an older British car like a Triumph. It's enough make you wanna eat a bullet. Hell...not even the BRITISH can figure those things out.
