Here is example A of how BMW is going to complete ****. After talking to several owners, I decided against buying an M3 and thought perhaps maybe it was isolated, but in any event, I should wait and see. I waited, and I saw, and I'm horrified.

BMW E46 M3 Engine Failure Archive

This is for the E46 BMW M3 archive. It lists 56 engine failures owners of this website have had alone.

Some interesting facts: Of all the engine failures, 43% of those occured in cars that were produced in November of 2001. Of those, 85% were SMG optioned automobiles. Most of the engine failures occured at between 5,500 and 9,000 miles.

Please also note the wonderful service BMW has provided it's owners. This is what a $50,000 car from BMW buys you, everyone.
