Don't be fooled by the maintenance. That is built into the price.

Correct.
I have also found that it is much harder to schedule service with BMW. I have to do it like 2-3 weeks in advance in order to guarantee a BMW loaner.
With MB, I can call a day in advance and have a MB loaner every time.
Overall, my experience with both brands has been absolutely stellar.
On a side note, I loved the E9X M3. If I could've justified two, gas-guzzling cars of the same "niche," I would've got them both. I'm very eager to drive the F80 M3. It has some things now that the previous M3 lacked: gobs of torque, world-class front bucket seats, and fixed front and rear calipers as standard (for the first time, surprisingly).
