    In the 9 months and 15000 miles I've had mine, I haven't had any issues with electronics besides the battery dying (probably my fault) and the fuel gauge fluttering (free replacement of entire instrument cluster). Of course once I hit 100k and shit isn't covered anymore, I'm sure everything will just start failing on me.

    I'm more willing to say 10% higher than indicated, but there seems to be a little bit of a curve. Also, I tend to concentrate on the road when in the lower echelons of speed. :P

    Most, if not all, fuel gauges in recent cars indicate lower than actual.

    I don't believe the odometer is tied to the speedometer; GPS data indicates 4-6 mph less than the speedo reads, but the mileage covered is always accurate. Still, the MPG indicators seem to be a bit high too. Fucking Germans. If the rest of the car wasn't amazing I'd be pissed.

    BMW insists there's nothing wrong with their electronics even though every single one of their cars indicates 4-6 MPH over true speed.
