lol. wow, that WAS bitter. even more bitter for me was trying to make myself believe that a survey constitutes a fact. here's another survey that claims the BMW 3-series is the most reliable car made: http://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/2008...-survey/29231/
anyways, you can complain all you want to about the car you (claim to) own. i am happy with my BMW, and most people here are happy with theirs. you seem hell bent on trying to get people to be unhappy with theirs, and it just makes you look like a troll. so..... go away or try to post something without an obvious agenda

Here's the evidence to make you accept the bitter truth for you:
http://news.drive.com.au/drive/motor...216-1tacf.html
BMW's quality is far lower than even the industry average. Look where Mercedes-Benz is and get silent. Even Audi has better quality than BMW.

However, we all do watch your behaviour and hyperboles here with a combination of pity, wariness and mild disbelief.
Now I will put away the popcorn and move on.

No need for irony. I just expressed my opinion. If you have any evidence proving the opposite, I'd be glad to see it (but I'm more than sure that you won't be able to give any evidence, because BMW heavily loses to Mercedes-Benz in nearly all surveys in terms of reliability).
So buy a new M-B and feel free and happy.

I also drive BMW and love it very much. It just disgusts me to see how low the quality of BMW's is compared to its main competitors.

Troll Mission: Impossible
BMW The Best, this is your mission, should you choose to accept it....
in 40 posts or less....manage to annoy the shit out of an entire community/site for BMW enthusiasts. it may be a hard fought battle....but if you troll the web hard enough....long enough, you will find obscure meaningless articles and user surveys that will fall on deaf ears, supply asinine opinions that no one cares to hear or read, create post after post based on idiotic principles and manage to spark the ire of everyone you come in contact with. be sure to remember that if your caught, the board members of Mercedes Benz (or whoever u serve) will disavow you and your efforts...we wish you the best and godspeed. this thread will self destruct in 30 seconds....(wishful thinking)

So, Mercedes have no reliability issues? CLICKY!!!! 
Also, there is scale. While yes, my CCC unit failed and needed to be replaced it cost me $600 for a replacement. The tech that diagnosed it ( a master tech for BOTH BMW and Mercedes) tols me I was lucky I had a BMW, replacing the came NAV unit in a Mercedes costs $5000

This is either Quad_M or Envy. 
J/K! On a serious note, we are all entitled to our opinions. BMW has it's fair share of problems, much like any other mass produced car. I still love mine, and that is what we share on this forum. The love of the brand, perfect or not.

This recall is nothing comparing to problems MB encountered with its SBC system. hope our troll can google and find out on his own what that was about. So shut up and leave the forum. You have just sign up for e60 and your posts make me thinking that it happened only for one reason.
