I will not discuss labor costs.
With that said, some advice to those who do blow up an S65 and *can't* do the job themselves: If you screw up a piston, and you also need either a new block, sleeves, or just 1 cylinder head; it may be wise to sell your shell and buy a whole different E9x M3.

Fair enough and I understand. Good to know on the parts price for anyone who has a similar issue. I know my A8 is $26k for just the long block, thing would be parted out if that ever happens lol. Just hit the big 100k the other day but been a great car so far in the 50k miles I've owned it.
Enjoy your car!!!
