The new BMWs are rather complex and, as such, simply will not be as reliable. I would be surprised if the newer BMWs would go 200K without some significant repair costs. I would be surprised if the newer automatic transmissions would last 200K, since it is not that uncommon for them to go bad in 100K or less.

But if you want a vehicle like a BMW, I doubt you'll find many nowadays that will go 200K without major repair costs, e.g., complex luxury cars with advanced transmissions and electronics up the yahoo, just aren't that reliable in the long-term as there is so much to go wrong that requires dealer service and parts.
