Thoughts on "manufacturers vehicles"

I am helping a friend research getting an X5, she has a 2002 and still loves it, but pretty much everything is leaking and it looks like it is time for a replacement. She doesn't know much about cars so I wanted to help her out.

She is looking to go used (hopefully CPO) and I was wondering what do you think about "manufacturers vehicles"? There are some really nicely priced 12s and even 13s out there with about 10-15kmi that are technically new (for warranty purposes I guess). Are these BMW executive cars or were they run to the ground at the performance institute (or whatever it is called)? Any other possibilities?

Are there any issues/risks with buying/owning one? I heard something about issues with extending the warranty or getting them certified, is this true and if so is it true for all of em?

Thanks

Possible they were "executive cars" meaning they were given to higher ups in the corporation for personal use.
I purchased one that had 45 miles on it, not 4500 or 45k, but 45.
