I continue to buy them because I like "E" BMW's. They are true drivers cars (unlike the watered down F's). I am willing to learn to work on my cars as a hobby and also have a good connection for a 65.00 an hour master tech that can bail me out if need be. If you are going to be PAYING for maintenance you more than likely will end up with a money pit with any BMW. If you DIY it is not bad in most cases.

The cooling system in one thing you want to stay ahead of since that high pressure system will force out most of your coolant in under a minute if you burst a hose or an expansion tank.
