I've never had to do more than pads on an M car- and that was only on my e46. The E92 had most its pad life left when i sold it (It was a '12), so I wouldn't be surprised if it makes it all 4 years with no change. I used track pads for track use.
And as a side note...If someone wants an 80K car and can't afford the maintenance within the 1st of 2nd year of ownership, then they should be looking for a different car. Let's be honest here.

Did you ever have any problems with your rotors at the track? I used the stock pads and had problems with the rotors they replaced them with the pads, was nice the BMW covered that!
