IMO it better to pay a slight premium say 1000-2500$ extra to get a good one, as opposed to a car with higher mileage / less history as you will likely pay this premium fixing stuff.

Just my 2c worth. & good hunting.
I agree. Sometimes its harder to find one like that but knowing the service history is very important. Single owner is nice too.

When I bought mine it was a one-owner, 33K mile vehicle, and bought from a BMW only dealer. IIRC, the original owner bought it from the same dealer too. I got lucky I guess.
