A nice "problem" to have!
More like it feels like flat-spotted tires, stiff shifting, and a car that otherwise would have been better off having been driven on a regular basis. I don't have time to drive all of my cars and they tend to feel a bit neglected when I get around to them.

So if u were to sell I wonder what your car would bring in the current market. Low $50s?? Mid 50s??

I'm guessing it was about a $65k MSRP that u should have been able to negotiate down to a $61 - 62k purchase.

Ouch! He's never even revved the engine to its torque peak, and hasn't come close to the power peak. Like driving a slow 335i with better suspension and brakes...

Different strokes I guess, but the car isn't worth having if you don't drive it.


4200 rpm is exactly half of the 8400 redline. Give it the beans man.

These cars and bmws in general don't react well to being babied. These cars need to be wound out periodically.
