I've heard that. After almost 80K miles that has not been my experience. I think the 7-Series (mainly the electronics) and V8's (well, we know why) are why (mainly) non-owners say BMW's are money pits (to quote a hack of a mechanic with over 51 years experience and a $4K scan tool on YouTube).

Thanks! I won't be able to finish the garage until Spring since I'm already budgeted put for the year. I need about $1400 to complete the flooring

Bro, how do you like the flooring in your garage. One of my buddies has a Concrete refinishing business, so I have considered having mine polished or adding some sort of epoxy, but your decking seems really cool.
What do you do if you have a oil/coolant spill or something? Also, how is it when using a jack to lift the car.

Swisstrax can handle jacking just fine, they're pretty solid. One of my friends who has it is considering removing them and going with polished concrete, as he hated how hard it was to clean under them. You have to take the pressure washer and kind of angle it in, and often times end up soaking wet because of the swisstrax blasting water back at you. If you don't clean underneath when you spill things like oils, it'll stain the crap out of your concrete underneath.

so far i haven't spilled anything yet and if i did a shop vac does wonders! if i need to remove a tile it's not very hard to do. so far i've used the jack with no problems whatsoever. the tiles can take a beating! honestly the garage tiles is just what i wanted because i wanted an overall showroom type garage. i do work on my car alot but nothing that would really ruin the flooring. basic maintenance and what not. when i did the brake upgrade it really did feel nice working in the garage because of how the flooring looks. makes working on the car that much more enjoyable!

here's the before:
and after: i ended up moving the tool box to the right wall with part of the Husky garage cabinets next to it. I had to relocate the TireRack mount above the tool box again because that's really the only space available. the refrigerator took place of where the tool box was and one of the tall Husky garage cabinet i placed next to the refrigerator. you can see the patch marks above from covering the existing holes from the TireRack mount. i think it all turned out well. i did order a bunch of BMW/PORSCHE flags too from FlagDelivery so i'll post those once i get them in

And everything matches. You are rocking the blue and black with the floor, tool boxes, and awesome cars! Very, very nice.
