Just because you have to ask your wife for an approval to spend money doesn't mean we all do. And since I don't have to ask for her permission to take my car to the track either, i tend to do that a lot. And judging by your comment you've never taken your bmw to the track to see what it does to your brakes and to your oil. And after spending all day at the track and doing that as a hobby, take it to the dealer and see how far you'll get with "free brakes and oil" change. Or better yet, track your car and follow the 15k oil interval.
