That's because cars are WILDLY different in 2019 than they were in 2009, or 1999, 1989, etc. They're infinitely more expensive to fix thanks to all of the tech packed into them. Huge leaps in engine/intercooler/turbo/transmission tech make parts that much more expensive too. I don't think it's an unreasonable thing that people don't want to own an expensive German luxury car out of warranty
