Having driven and continue to drive the X6M on and off again, I have never had any spontanious combustion moments.
Hopefully this is a one-off and I am glad that no one was seriously injured.
A car is just a car.
BMW's engineers and forensic department will extensively look over the car as per all BMW high profile incidents. BMW are not supportive of the Aftermarket which is why if you have a BMW with aftermarket work extensively altering the car they void your warranty. Far too often the customer is left out in the cold by being told that its BMW's fault. I know someone who works with these claims and they say every one is rejected if found to have extensive aftermarket work done.
But as a side effect BMW's Rolls-Royce division has now banned tuners from touching their cars.
