Gotcha, that's a good point which I need to keep in mind.
Any issues with the electronic power steering and the LCD dashboard & Navi screen? I'm just terrified if it fails since it's no longer hydraulic.

I don't have any experience with failures. Electric steering has been used for 10-years now for BMW so I wouldn't doubt the reliability of it, but again, I don't own my cars long term anymore since my E46, so I don't have much information, I highly suggest you look at some of the F3X forum posts as there are some high milage cars there. Just get ready for ZERO steering feel, it is the biggest adjustment in going from an E-Chassis BMW to an F/G-Chassis car.
