But Not only does a car have to have the "Cpo" but also an optional maintenance plan with the CPO is the way to go... They have taken care of all of the oil changes, any little noise, radio, ANYTHING! Actually, they just replaced my Brakes and Rotors at 72,000miles... with a $50 deductible... Now that is something else...

If you want CPO, that is perfectly fine, but if you add the 2 year or 50,000 mile maininence plan, this will basically give your car/truck a 6/100,000 miles of worry free driving... and I believe the Maintence plan is an additional $2,250 above and beyond the price of the X5, all cars are different price, but I can only imagine what the Brakes, rotors, etc will cost at the end of the day... and Believe me, you will use it.... Let me know if you have any additional questions, I will try to answer

AND I QUOTE:

Buying a BMW isn’t just an expensive proposition on the MSRP front, many first-time luxury-car shoppers worry about maintenance costs. For years now, BMW has offered free maintenance on new-car purchases; it picks up the tab for the first four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. Now, the company is offering an extended plan of six years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first, at an additional charge of between $1,395 and $2,995. The plan excludes the limited Alpina B7, but it does include all M performance models and diesels. Any current owners under the four-year/60,000-mile plan can add the service.BMW recommends service every 15,000 miles on new models.
