in the US all's free for the first 4 years/50K miles except tires. I guess tires will add up second only to gas for out of pocket expense. I am not sure what to expect after 50K miles and it's no longer on warranty.

Thx for the answers i got.

You guys in the states are so lucky!!! Here in Denmark (where i am from) the state put 180% on the cars price! And the price per US gallon is arround 8,4 dollars! Talking about a country that crushes your childhood dreams when it comes to cars

So for me to get a car to a price that is not over the top i have to go 2 Sweden (only a little water between Denmark and Sweden). Prices are crazy here! Maybe it would be worth it to go to cali and enjoying life a little

Evidently the car is expensive as well as insurance but I feel maintenance costs are reasonable compared to a Porsche 997. In addition, I already have 6 months with my M3 and no problems whatsoever.
