General Car Conversation - 2026 Part 1
I believe it is. I added more pics above your post.
I like our dealer gives you a comparable loaner to what you already have. They gave me some choices to choose from.
Also they tell you don’t worry about gas or toll fees.

I had an i7 xDrive 60 as a loaner last summer, it was awesome. My service in a few weeks is just brake fluid so I'm going to wait, but curious to see what I get for the annual service in June.
Same. They don't have any M cars in the loaner fleet for reasons that should be obvious, but they try to put you in something "equitable".

Zero.
Maintenance included for the first three years. So this one's on BMW, the next one (in ~3 years) I'll do myself when I'm swapping between summer and winter wheels. It will cost me about $40.
I'd guess the dealer would charge somewhere in the $180-200 range, but I don't know for sure. I can look and see if it's posted in the shop when I get there.

Changed both Toyotas oil today, the sequoia on 30 weight instead of 20 looks how it should now. No more flecks and pearl, no idea why it did that on XX-20 but now it's using the same VW504 spec oil in 0w-30 I use for other cars and it looks perfect again.
LS460 is still not consuming oil
The 5.7 scared me a bit last time but all is good again.
Reference from last change 5100 miles ago/1 year back.
