Looks could be deceiving, if it has been in an accident carfax does not tell you the extent of damage. I personally would look somewhere else due to the unknowns, plus for $45K I'd look for a 4.8.
I was also told when I bought my X5 that BMW would not CPO a car that has had any accident at all. They had an X5 that I liked more than the one I got less miles and had the DVD system in the back same year...but mine was more and they could not offer the .9% on the other car because they could not CPO it. I asked why and it had been involved in a minor accident. I think about 2k. Made me feel a little better about buying a CPO.
