  2. I made the very bad mistake of buy a BMW once, an E90 M3 with the S65 4.0L. I bought it when they were still a current model and the faults which are now well documented were not common knowledge. Mine had the Throttle Body Actuators fail, and the dreaded rod bearings starting making noises, when i replaced them they were heavily worn. Fixed it, sold it, bought an IS-F Lexus which ive had for 7 years, and it hasn't missed a beat.

  3.  @chrisbradley3224  Here in NZ we get a lot of 2nd hand cars from Japan as we drive on the same side of the road. The BMW i bought had only 15,000 km (about 9500 miles) and was less than a year old, i got it for about 1/3 of the price of a new one. Same thing with the ISF it was a 2nd hand Japanese car, they were about 160,000 NZ dollars when new😳I got mine for 30,000. Just needed to change the infotainment system to a modern non Japanese speaking one🤣(the bmw already had it done by the dealer) The 2UR-GSE 5.0 litre in the ISF is easily a match for the 4.0 in the BMW, and is far more reliable, the handling at track speeds is a step behind, but on the road its not and issue, The auto? a manual would make that car epic, but at least its a good solid box that has a rep for not giving trouble, and again for daily driving on the road, which is what the car is used for its fine. I'm just waiting and hoping to find a nice low Km J import Alfa Romeo giulia quadrifoglio, and get back into Euro money pits.😄😄
