BUT every manufacturer has cheap maintenance vehicles and high maintenance vehicles... and then within those are a mash of lemons and pears... we just have to decide what we want OUT of this "from point a to point b machine".
I'm not ashamed to say that if my X5 acts up, I'd be going back to a Japanese manufacture in a heart beat. Infinity FX's are gorgeous and FUN to drive.
but I'm extremely lucky to be able to repair my vehicles, when needed and DO love the looks I get in my 8 and the purpose of my X5 in a Canadian winter season... Viva la BMW.

Absolutely. And I think that is the reason most of us deal with the BMW issues. Xoutpost deserves credit as well.
