Now I have a few more questions about the vehicle. The one I want to purchase, has about 136k on it and is sitting on coilovers. I was told these vehicles don't really last too long with the mileage(may not even reach 200-250k). Is this true or false? What are the steps to ensure it reaches a long life? My other question is...I've heard of softwares or tuners that can regulate gas mileage for these vehicles(meaning not making them burn so much fuel) but obviously less horse power. Is this true or false? Any feed back is gladly appreciated!!

If you are in search of getting better fuel economy on an X5 you need to look at a 6 cylinder option.The 4.8is is a performance beast and fuel economy is not a consideration in the delivery of this vehicle.
