- A BMW ad claims their car (or was it just the engine?) was driven for
- at redline 100 000 miles straight. The engine showed no signs of wear.
- How does this compare to other cars? How does this compare to airliners?
-
- I wonder if BMW drove the car or if they just ran the motor. How fast
- would a BMW running at redline be if people had to drive 100 000 miles
- in top gear?
