Just found out from a co-worker that all BMW's kerplode after 30,000 miles. News to me.
This is why I try to keep my car purchases quiet at work.
Here, have some eye pain:

once you're at this level of rice it's hard to trust a badge

That body work can't be cheap, and they've made something objectively uglier than a Honda or a BMW.

but yeah, I can respect the work done, but I do not respect the outcome

I heard these BMW's were pretty reliable. Maybe you should swap yours for one.

Well if they are anything like my sportswagen tdi...its 40,000/

Haha, I actually had a 2000 Galant, which really did steal a few BMW design cues of the time. And it was reliable...

My E34 is nearly at 200,000 and still running strong.

So out of curiosity, what BMW did you buy?

Hah, that's actually not half bad.

I think.... yeah. ok.

30K!?
Jeez. I think we used to give Yugo's at least 80k back in the 80's.
any other old guys wanna help me with this.

2012 135i, which admittedly does have a turbo, but that doesn't mean it will instantly explode at 30k.

Yeah, 30k is just breaking it in. Dunno what he was talking about.

That's pretty sweet. And as long as you keep up with maintenance and oil changes you won't have any issues at all. I have the same engine in my 2011 335i. The N55 is way more reliable than the N54 was.

you are correct. the level of bad is not half. it is much higher percentage

Damn. Mine's at 240k. I'll have to keep an eye on it...

My 160,000km (100k mile) 01 E39 M5, on origional vanos, engine seals, diff transmission and a second clutch says fuck you to your co-worker and leaves 400hp of smoked tyres for him to choke on.
Nice choice on the 135 Btw.
