  Have you researched what is wrong with it? There are many complaints, but also many low cost fixes listed on this site.
  
• Replacement of all electronics in "money corner" as the dealer puts it. Back left corner due to sunroof drain plugging. $3600.
  
  All? Just because the dealer says they all need replacing doesn't mean they actually do.
  
• Pixelated dash (not repaired)
• Auto wipers and headlight sensor failure. BMW says replace the windshield for $1300.
  
  Plenty of new AM windshields for about $300. (and that suggestion sounds suspect to me.)
  
• CV joint failure
• Power steering pump replacement
• Thermostat replacement.
  
  diy $100? All cars need service parts.
  
• Passenger mirror failure.
  
  Possible corroded connector? Clean it?
  

This is supposed to be an upscale vehicle that was almost $50k when new. I have been a huge BMW fan. I also have an 04' 330Cic. This is a ridiculous amount of failures for the mileage and the care this car has received.

Time for a new Audi SQ5.....
