HPFP Update

Here are some noteworthy updates on what has progressed in term of HPFP. Since BMW bought back my broken 135i, a columnist named Peter Cohan on AOL has written two articles on the issue.

The latest one talks about a second class action lawsuit against BMW:

And the first one when he noticed the problem:
http://www.dailyfinance.com/story/au...ompa/19560998/

As a disclaimer I am not persuading you guys to lean towards any course of action. All I am trying to do is to spread the information so you can make the best decision for yourself. Personally I believe BMW is a stand up company who stood behind their product and bought it back from me. (Though, I tried really HARD.) I will consider their cars again without a doubt but it has to be a reliable and fun car.


I do have my petition still up:

Thanks for the link. I would like to see the whole story if it's also available online.
