My wife and I are looking to buy a second car, we currently share our 10 year old Nissan, which has been great with zero unscheduled maintenance, and cheap to maintain partly because I've replaced brakes, shocks, etc. myself. It has 145K and we have no plans to sell it but we need another vehicle. This next car will be a great convenience to us but we would also like something zoomy and fun to drive that we can be proud to own, and though we've never owned one, we love German cars.
I've heard horror stories that bimmers are expensive to maintain but this one has really low miles for its age, not even 20K @ ~5 years old, only one owner, no accidents reported, and comes with maintenance logs. Doesn't seem like I could go too far wrong with this car, and though we will be financing it, we could likely get most of our money back out of it if we decided to sell it in a year or two.
This particular car ticks every single box with features we want, and other than it being a SULEV vehicle, it seems perfect for us. It's even the xdrive model with AWD. I really want to pull the trigger but I need outside opinion from others who have owned one.
Thanks in advance!
