Plus I think the M2 looks fantastic now so they are bound to screw it up (such as potentially putting an ugly new grille on its nose). And I had waited long enough for a new car this time & wasn't about to wait another year. So, yeah, I'm keeping her for the long term.
Yea the N55 has a good track record for reliability. I am not sure the S55 has been terrible though?
