Had one, was a blast to drive. Like taking corners posted at 25 mph at 60 mph fun. Amazing in snow with Pirelli snow tires, almost could not get it to slide.
The kid got dinged in it by another car. Took two months and twice as money as the insurance company thought to fix. That was at the dealer.
Same kid now drives a BMW. Took it to a shop to get the alternator replaced, they quoted $1,600. He did it himself instead, three bolts and an online alternator for about $200, Some of the repair bills on German brands is because the shops know they can get away with it.
