Please add me to list (2009 135i). I am interested in 7 yr/100k Gold EVP
I have driven BMWs since 1974 and, in my opinion, this is the most valuable "performance" modifications you can make. Given the inherent nature of the turbo, the aggressive driving style of most of us and the level of modifications being performed by large number of the community members, there are going to be a lot of mechanical problems down the road. Frankly I am concerned that these factors may have a long term impact on the ultimate perception of the 1 as a problem car. I also expect that BMW will become even more reluctant (then they already are) about honoring warranty claims when they suspect any abuse or modifications. Considering the amount of cash that people are dropping on their cars (which will not increase the value of the car), the cost of the EVP seems to me worth the investment for an additional 2 yrs/20k or 50k miles of driving piece of mind.
