Running a car hard puts extra wear on brakes, suspension, and motor you can't deny that. Look how reliable your cars have been.

My cars have been reliable. I bought my BMW knowing what it needed. You must have missed the maintinence part. Brakes and suspension call under that

It's true. However, good maintenance should include replacing worn parts (end links, struts/springs/coil over rebuild, brakes, etc).

Did i not just say i've replaced nearly every worn suspension/sway part on my car? As I said, you're standards of what "babied" means, suggests that A) the car should have not a single modification. B) Should never see rain or snow. C) Should never be driven past 3500 RPM. D) Should never have a dog inside of it. E) Should be on jacks every waking second its not driven as to bring the stress off the suspension components.

Whoopty doo you changed suspension on your old car as you should have
Babying your car isn't just maintenance when **** goes wrong.
This is babying to me
A) The car should have not a single modification. B) Should have been garaged and thoroughly cleaned regularly when exposed to elements C) Should never be driven past 3500 RPM. depending on motor D) Should never have a dog inside of it.

This argument never would have ensued if you had read the last line you quoted in the previous page.
The term "babied" is SUBJECTIVE. Your initial post on the subject was telling me that my opinion was wrong. Thats fine and dandy what you think babied means.... but i'm sure there are many others that dont agree with you.
I'm over this, good luck to you.

You must have nothing to do if you got all worked up about the way someone used the word "babied".

I've put almost everything into my back seat, i've cleaned it as much as i can.
I don't own dogs, but I have transported them along with a chinchilla in it's cage in my back seat. Chinchillas are the worst.
