Bought my 2017 M6 ZL1 new in February 2017. Just out of warranty, the A/C compressor conked out and I paid for that repair. I had the water pump replaced under warranty. Other than that, no issues. I still have the original clutch @ 95,000 miles and still have the original battery at nine years old plus. The car was manufactured 11/16. I change my own oil every 5,000 miles, and have since new, I've changed the tranny fluid myself, the rear diff fluid. I changed my own brake pads at 82,000 miles and have never turned the rotors...they don't need turning. I've only been to the dealership twice in nine years. This car has exceeded my expectations in every way. I hope it lasts me another twenty years. or more. It's truly my favorite car Ive ever owned. Not because of reliability, but because of the fun factor, the power, the handling, the brakes, the turn-in, its beauty, the comfort of driving it, and of course, rowing through the gears. I'm 64 and never want to drive an automatic. Don't care that they're faster on the track...etc. I feel special every day in this car. Can't imagine that's a common sentiment that owners of other makes/models feel.
