+It has rear seats, something the S2k and Z don't have so I can throw all my buddies in there
+Has more in common with my car than the others (8k redline and SSR wheels)
-Most expensive car out of the group, payments can be a pain
-Maintainence could charge up the butthole
-Yes, the color can have its good and bad days
-I hate that raspy sound (but then again I'll just buy a UUC X-pipe to get rid of that)
-Who knows if it's going to be around come next month
Maintainence is paid for by BMW for the first 3year/36K miles
So you have one service or so remaining. Second you can change the oil yourself
The oil however is expensive and can only be purchased from the dealer 10-60W and you have to use that oil or your extended warranty is void.
As for the "Inspections I and II" you can do these yourself. 90% of it is literally inspection as in check the fluid levels, wiper blades, brake pad, etc.
Color... No comment.
I actually like the rasp now.
You get used to it and it reminds me a little of F1 cars
