I have a bad opinion of BMW owners in general (a dear friend has one now, I love her and would never say ill against her, but that's not going to save the rest of the breed, either), and this isn't doing them any favors.
My longest interval of oil change I did on a BMW 525 after 35.000 miles, mostly driven in over 2 hour drives. It ran on LPG and even after the 35.000 miles the oil was still clean and felt like new, I changed it just because it was way over indicated interval.
In my opinion oil change intervals depends a lot on what fuel you use and what your driving conditions are.
Wow, I've never seen a closeup of BMW dingleberries.
While I go with long-interval changes, all of the vehicles are watched closely, and the cars use synthetic.
For the record, the 3.2L I6 in the Benz holds 8 liters...this cuts down on having a guilty conscious going 15K miles...considering upping it to 20K, between changes.
The RX300 sees 10K Mobil1 changes 'cause it's a known sludge-offender and it holds only 5 qts.
Last I heard, around here, you hit it, you git it.
I saw a deer bent into a U by the side of the road on my way in to work this morning. Maybe if the truckbed hadn't been full of pallets...no. I don't mind hacksawing off the head - it's hacksawing off the feet that gives me the willies.
One more facelift and they'll finally be able to stretch the lights right up the A-pillar. And I can't quite tell if the center stack is a Transformer or a Bionicle. So confusing. But if handles well and goes like scoot, I will sit down and shut up. Oh yeah: hatchback with a manual turbo in gray, thanks.
I do not like the proportions of the sedan at all. It's clearly an aftermarket for the USDM. Why can't we have the 3 door? Oh wait, marketing departments and focus groups said we won't buy them.
I believe Ford added the grill in order to turn those that would finally be happy that the Fiesta is coming right back into forum arsonists. Flames make the Internet world go round, thanks Ford!

Catch the deer in a lasso, make it run behind the car to your house, then blow its brains out in the driveway.
Problem solved!
