 This is the Ultimate Driving Machine in so many respects.  I bought this car new in 2007 and still drive it today.  It is a fine vehicle and enjoy driving from Southeast Louisiana to the Florida Gulf Coast.  It is a dream to drive.  The only negative elements thus far is that the touch coating on the steering wheel and on the console bubbled and pealed off.  The dealership and BMW should have replaced it in my opinion.  Just outside of the extended warranty the all wheel driveon the right front failed.  Fortunately I had purchased a second extended warranty from The Good Sams Club and after my deductable of $500.00 they paid out $1762.00.    This was a major job for a failed gasket.  Should not have happened at 115,000.00 miles in my opinion.  The tailgate fold down plastic piece broke.poor design with plastic rather than metal.  Plastic doesn't hold up in southern heat.   All factors considered the best car that I have ever owned, hands down!
