For those of you who are thinking about doing this..
1- if your brand new M car breaks down while in Germany, BMW will check your car to see if you went over 5500 rpm or did something stupid. If you did, they may very well void factory warrantee and you will be responsible for your own repairs.

Can you cite an instance where this has happened or provide an official document from BMW stating this?

If one is planning to do a European Delivery of a M3/4, and not drive on the Nurburgring or hit the speed limiter on the autobahn, I would recommend buying a 320i instead.

Most types of auto insurance aren't meant to cover track days. How would an incident on track cause your insurance to be voided? Are you speaking from experience? Did you try to use the BMW provided insurance to cover track damage?
