This was my exact experience and the reason I made the switch to the BRZ. The final straw was the power steering pulley hit the aluminum cross member under hard acceleration causing the belt to break. The belt wrapped behind the crank pulley pushing the seal and belt inside the timing chain cover. At a BMW dealership all of these repairs would easily amount to over $10k. My warranty expired and I was unwilling to risk the unknown repair costs and down time.
That said, I love everything about my BRZ but I REALLY miss the ridiculous amount of torque from my lightly modded 135i!
