Great to hear. Again it depends on how you drive and other variables. I'm just going by what my BMW tech and other friends who work in performance shops tell me. Everyone's definition of 'yeah I drive my car fast' is different.

I could probably get away with 10k oil changes too since I just set the cruise on the highway and don't really push the car. But at like $100 every 5-6000 miles it's just cheap insurance. Might even help resale since people in this thread are pretty divided on it
