The question is about reliability... this my second Phantom 2006, kept them always inside my garage, most service done by me or a Good BMW mechanic. 15000 miles
Suspension issues, front going down after few days, dealer estimate including service around $19000, problem found was a small leak on top of the air bag, the line had a small scratch on the quick connector, then the windshield water jets were not working, the pump replacement was $390 at the dealer, we located a BMW OEM on ebay for just $12, installation took only few minutes. The oil service kit BMW cost us $89 dealer wanted $1900. I love my car, paid wholesale for the first one 2006 two tone blue and gray interior, entertainment, 7000 miles $169K sold it few years later for $150, no issues just normal maintenance, the second one also a 2006 back edition, 13000 miles, entertainment, refrigerator, diamond black purchased back in 2016 for $118K.. get better attention than my new Porsche GT3, $250K..
*my garage floor is always clean, no fluid leaks! my old 1986 RR Corniche was always making a mess.
*Keep always a battery maintainer connected, this way your electronics will last for ever.
Car cover inside a garage a must.
Air conditioning is simple and reliable and efficient: Florida, car is black in and out.
Radio and phone integration is excellent. voice activated instruments also very practical.
The only bad part is the visibility all around, rear camera is now antiquated, front cameras are useless.
