BMW dealerships charge more for maintainence on them then a Chevy dealership does on a Chevy. Period. Research this and you'll see.
How about true cost to own? Well here's a little breakdown on a used 2002 BMW 330i (225 hp/214 lb-ft tq.), as it compares to the same year Infiniti G35 (sedan), and Benz C-Class (and a Mazda Millenia, but whatever). You'll notice the BMW has the highest True Cost to Own of the bunch. This includes estimated costs associated with maintainence and repairs.
Now here is a breakdown in a brand new, never driven, full warranty'd 2004 Grand prix GTP. 260 hp/280 lb-ft tq. Brand new and still cheaper than the Bimmer.
BMW's are expensive to own. And fix. And maintain.

Somehow, comparing a GM to a BMW seems like blasphemy to me.
GM have to have THE WORST engineering quality on the road today.
I have a 97 Buick Park Avenue that spends more time hanging from a tow truck than driving down the road. It's been towed so many times that the Autoclub has revoked my membership till renewal next year.
Just out of curiousity about your site you linked to, I did a search on a Park Ave. and found that your site said that my car has an excellent power train. So I now know that they don't have a clue because my P.O.S. has one of the worst powertrains going.
GM anything is bad news.
