Wondering what you guys think of this deal? This is for a coworker, so I take no offense for honest feedback.

German automobile with almost 100k miles? I wouldn't. Then again, my confidence in late-model, high-end German automobiles has been shaken as of late.

What should I say to him. Just that it has high miles?

I wonder if buying an extended warranty is an option? Are we suggesting the BMW brand is not worth keeping beyond a certain mileage despite regular maintenance?

I’d say rubbish.... to that.....any car needs shocks etc at some point... and no one forces you to pay dealer prices or maintain at a dealer... no matter what the vehicle.... BMW every day of the week...

You're right, shocks are considered items which need to be replaced eventually. Not valve seals etc. My FJ is at 125k miles. First Jap vehicle I ever bought. The most reliable to date.

I wouldn't touch any BMW V8 if it was given to me for free, based only on what I've read on the BMW sites. MB Bluetec is a close 2nd. I've just recently removed all the DEF/DPF/EGR crap off it, at least now I have hope that it'll last me awhile.
