2 Year ownership review BMW 6 series Gran Coupe

How's it going, I decided to do a quick 2-year review on my BMW 650 gran coupe. I have owned the car for over 2 years and have been daily driving it to about 30k miles. Along the way I have had some issues with the motor however after spending 3 months at my local BMW dealership, I got it back and still enjoying it. Below is a link to a video that goes into more detail if interested.

Chit, $250 a month for insurance? I think I’m less than $900 a year.

What do you mean by "crash insurance"? In the US there are more or less two components of insurance. One is liability insurance to cover damage you do to others - either to their car or their body. Then you can buy insurance to cover the damage done to your own car. In many or most US states you are required to carry some level of liability insurance, but enforcement is nearly nonexistent. People often do not buy insurance on their own car to save money and take the risk. So are you saying your car has no insurance of either type?

Just the insurance of damaging my car by my own is missing ("if I hit it's my penalty"). With that my price would go double.

These 6'ers were still in 2018 (when I bought it) rare here so the insurances were 'not right' ( while the cars were mostly garage cars) and my just the traffic licence ( insurances others damages if I'm the one hitting them) is just 145 euros/ year ! It raised quite soon after my buy.
