They don't cry "Poor design" and start court action when suspension components break and they are glad to get 10,000 miles per set of tire at over $400 per tire! They also routinely replace body panels due to mistakes while trying these stunts. In short, their BMWs are play toys, money is no object and they really enjoy their toys!
