I have a 4.6 with 114,000 miles. I purchased it new. I have had very few problems. I am almost OCD about taking good care of it other than driving hard all the time. That said, I don't think it helps much to do comparisons because of the huge number of variables from one vehicle to another and the environment they are in.

I suggest you have a complete inspection done by a well recommended Indy shop that specializes in BMWs to see where you stand. I think particular attention should be paid to suspension components and state of all fluids.

Before the inspection I would check or have it checked for error codes. If there are any have them cleared and have the inspection done a few days of driving later so the shop if any have returned they are new codes.
