Found the heater thing quite interesting. Definitely would have never thought of doing something like that myself. Just curious, what kind of temps were you seeing that made you turn it on?
haha true about taking the exotic to the track. I'd be scared to, just on a investment point of view :P

I blast my heater all the time while @ the track. Oil temps can reach over 210* F easily, especially on a warm day. And on a colder day? The heater helps keep me warm in the car; since the windows are always down

I have not had a problem with mine.

Have you tried claiming BMW warranty if you think it is defective.

Shouldn't cause damage from normal use.
It happens though, accidental nicks here and there. Sometimes when driving spiritedly you can't control exactly where your hands end up on the steering wheel. I find that sometimes my fingernail nicks a small portion on accident =/
