BMWs today are built to last. Just like your own body, if you maintain it right it will last you a long time. However, if you're a fat fucking slob and eat like crap, you're pretty much screwed.
and runs like new. although thrust rod bushings have worn (I live in florida where it is warm so not a big deal yet) '04 530

Warrantied:
Cup holders (stuck lol)

That's it. I did some preventative stuff on the car so it runs just fine and I have an oil change coming up in 5,000 miles.

Just hit 90,000 miles on my 2004 530i over the weekend. The car is still perfect and is a joy to drive. I expect to take it to at least 200,000 miles over the next few years without any major problems or expenses and I expect it to continue to drive great.
Thanks for the replies, just made my decision a little easier.
