I found an M4 motor on "Black Friday sale" lol, sold by a 3rd party vendor not even the stealership: $25k CAD, not including install labor. What would that labor be at BMW? Like $10k? At the end of the day, you're fucked nearly just as hard.

The guy should've skipped the dealership and just rebuilt his existing pack. Maybe it was just a bad module:

When I worked for Dodge, the price for a 6.2 Hellcat engine was 35k for a short block, before taxes and install. This was last year. A brand new 5.7 hemi would cost around 22k.
