However I prefer to keep the vehicle 7-8 years with the extended warranty. Even with the warranty, there’s always the headache of not having your cars for days at the shops for repairs. This leads to the reliability for the f90 M5 which I know it’s too early in its lifecycle, 2018 to present, to know. I was lucky with my f10 didn’t have much issues until year 5 and on with minor repairs which were covered by the warranty.

How many of you decided to lease vs purchase? Or vice versa?
I purchased my 2018. It's only got 8500 miles but not one single issue so far in two and half years. I've had dozens of new BMW's and this is the only one that hasn't had to visit the dealer for an issue
