New to BMW. Few questions before I buy...

As the title says I am 100% new to the BMW world. I currently drive a 03 Mustang GT and want something with alot more class as well as something more practical for daily driving. I drove a 2004 X3 and instantly fell in love with it. It's true what they say about the Ultimate Driving Experience. Now for my questions. I've been doing some research and have found horror stories about transmissions not going into reverse and coolant leaks that lead to blown engines. Is this a common problem with the X3s? Also, I am worried about the cost for repairs. Are BMWs a great deal more expensive to repair? Are the BMW dealerships in Harrisburg / State College good places to do business? Anything I should look for when buying a used X3 (used being around 40k miles)? Sorry for all the questions, I just want to make an educated decision before I sell my perfectly fine daily driver for something better. Thank you in advance for any advice!
