Given repair costs of some of the most mundane items, I don't know how anyone can rationally justify not buying the extended warranty.

Just imagine the cost of the servos that control the adaptive drive roll bars. I don't even want to imagine what those items cost, if the shocks themselves cost $1k.

There are so many sensors on the X5, a good majority of which appear to be visible in the wheel wells and open to the elements, that I flinch at the repair costs of a major component going out.

The warranty is expensive, I'll grant you that, but with $1k shocks...
