I haven't had any issues with any major components. Still stock tranny, clutch, turbos, etc. I actually have been following close to the recommended oil change interval by the car instead of the strict 6,000 or 10,000 mile standard some use. I just recently changed out coils and plugs due to a rough idle and being on a Stg 2 tune. If anything, that seems to be the one recurring theme, rough idle. However, changing the plugs works every time. The coils were changed because they had around 80,000 miles on them.

I'm not saying that there might not be some value in doing more maintenance, but what I am saying is that there is no "proof" that doing so is of any benefit. There just aren't any controlled studies out there to prove or disprove what some often-quoted individuals suggest. Just because someone has strongly held opinions and writes well and forcefully, doesn't make what they write to be provable fact. How any one car stands up to extended use over periods of time probably has more to do with how the car is driven, how it is stored, where it is stored, and luck, than anything else. Congrats on your car!

45,000 kms. Owned since new after an epic ED trip. Annual miles are starting to drop due to the overflow of cars in the garage these days.

I'm assuming you're the first owner of the virtually 0 mile car, but what about the other one?

TL;DR = I try hard to drive my 1M as much as humanly possible. Anyone here fighting the demons just stop and go out and enjoy owning a masterpiece. Anyone who only cares about the selling price put it away like canadianbimmerlover and forget you own it. With much love and affection for all 1M brethren...peace.
