I swear you can scratch the aluminum trim by just looking at it in anger !!!

The cup holder makes a rattling noise when it is open... so much so that my wife takes my bottle of water out of it and puts it on the passenger seat beside herself, and closes the cup holder.

Yes, having a full warranty is good... but one hopes that issues like these don't exist in a $40-$50k+ luxury brand to begin with. As much as I love the engine/drive of BMW cars, I am not very impressed by these types of flaws.
