As a BMW owner, I actually found the repair pricing quite comparable. Maybe not quite to a Corolla, but it was to a Lexus.

If anything the Lexus was a bit more, due to how common BMW specialist shops are, while there's none for Lexus.

The issue for me was the frequency of the repairs, 5 years of Lexus ownership cost me less than any 3-4 month period of BMW ownership over the 2 years I owned it.

I suppose I can only compare 2-3 repairs, cause the other dozen repairs for the BMW simply didn't break on the Lexus, nor did it spring any of oil leaks my BMW was famed for.




Your mistake was taking it to a Lexus dealer. The cars are nearly identical to their Toyota counterparts so most mechanics can work on them
