otoupalik is on a distinguished road
i just bought a 2002 same mileage. They are great cars.

My recommendation is to find a good independent mechanic or shop. You will spend money maintaining any used car. If you liek the car and got a good deal, keep it and just maintain it.

Being in teh business I can tell you that you will spend money on any car out of warranty.

If you want more power, you can add a VF blower and be faster then the 2.6 or 4.8 for less money then the swap to the newer car.

BTW, I am a BMW tuner (evosport) and all of my personal cars are used (02 M3, 02 X5 and 99 MZ3). Used cars are gems (especially at the prices they are now).

Thanks
Brad
