Not a lot of data on the ZF6s, although it doesnt seem alarming.

"Spirited" driving and not being able to downshift yourself? Hmmm. luck of the draw

Keep in mind that by 200k, most X5s will never have seen a ATF change. [shudder]

Not a TON of sunroof complaints...im going to say they have addresses much of it.

They still havent figured out how to address water drain from the sunroof into the rear electronics bay... basically the drains get blocked with debris, leading to water frying modules

LCD screen doesnt move. It is fixed in the middle of the dash

V8s still a disaster.

Buying a $65k car for $6k and hoping it will go years without expensive repairs is prolly not a great plan

Some people are luck, some are not. Hard to guess which you will be
