Any thoughts? How much is a HPFP fitted!?  |
Kinda makes me wonder the faith they have in the product if they need to sting $3,100 for a 2 year warranty.
Having said that, I did keep an E46 323i for 7 years without a hiccup but my E53 X5 made a
lot of visits back to the dealer after the warranty expired. Similarly, my '08 135i and current E90 M3 had their fair share of trips back to the dealer but all within the warranty period. My E60 530i used to blow fuses and even the A/C packed in. Even the new E70 X5 went back.... the day I picked it up!!! (Auto tailgate would not lock)!
I guess it boils down to a question of love. If you really, really love your car and want to keep it, it may be an option you'd consider.
As much as I love my M3... I don't think I will keep it beyond the warranty period. Love hurts.............. My 12 year old relationship with BMW will be sorely tested in 2012/13 - unless they bring in the F30 3 series with the twin turbo 3.0L diesel that's in the 335d overseas!!
FWIW...the Kizashi is nearly a year old and has not skipped a beat!!
