Now if BMW could just address their overstyling issues.

My 2016 M235 6MT with 80K miles and Stage 2 mods, which I ordered new, has been absolutely bulletproof for over 8 years of ownership. The ONLY repair I had to make was get a software reprogram back in April 2016 because the car didn't like the Midwest winter fuel. That's it.

I do all the maintenance on the car and inspect the engine bay once a month for leaks and such. The only thing showing some oil weepage is the valvetronic servomotor gasket which is a $10 part and a 2 minute repair. The car is still on the stock clutch too. Not a freaking rattle in the car. I love this car and motor so much that I plan to replace it with a used 2017-2018 M2 DCT. I would keep it if it were an automatic. My other car is a Cayman 6MT and I don't need two 6MTs.
