If you are mechanically inclined at all, you can change your own brakes for about $400 (complete front and rear pads and rotors).

WIth your mileage estimates you would need about 3 oil changes (with BMW's recommended intervals) for a total of $540, but you can also do that yourself and save a lot of money. Or you can take it to an indy shop and goet it done for under $100

You will also probably only need one inspection (if that)

So if you can do some of these items yourself, I would say don't get it. Especially if you are sure you are going to sell at that mileage. I would only buy a warranty if I were going to use up all of the mileage as cars typically tend to break more with mileage and not age.
