Nope. Not sure where you are getting this info from but not all s65 eats rod bearings. I would suggest you do some more readings before making this statement. There are certain numbers of failures but it doesn't mean all of them will be affected. There is a member here bought 350k miles E92 M3 and it was still on its original bearings!

I saw his IG post and am looking forward to the video, the Maserati turned into a large paperweight with a beautiful exterior.

Donate it to the local fire department for vehicle fire training. Make that car suffer over and over again.

looks like BMW Spokane bought Sretens M5, the ring taxi. Curious what they will resell it for. I wish I had the room in the garage for it!
