I figure worst case if my stock F80 blows something big like turbos, trans, etc. then the dealer/ BMW should step up and cover a chunk of the cost, or provide a reasonable trade, despite being out of warranty. I did talk to a dealer mechanic recently and they haven't seen an SCH yet on stock cars, only tuned cars for whatever that is worth.
Just curious, but why would you expect dealer or BMW to cover something major after the stated warranty period? That sounds unlikely but interesting.
