Repairing here is fairly cheap because labour costs around 30USD/hour
Used 4.6is cost $188,000 ????????

Hey dude, welcome to the forum

So you're in China??? Which part? I grew up from there. A brand new 4.6is costs that much, that's for sure. And that's one of the reasons I like US.

I would agree with that, if you really enjoy it, and got the spare cash, go with it. I'd prefer take it as a down payment for a brand new 2012 X3, or Z4.

Welcome again!!!

price of BMW is outrageous in Asia, they are about 3x the US price.
Welcome to the board.
@120K-Km you are about 75000 miles, I'll overhaul the cooling systems; that squeal at start up on mine was the Water-pump bearing on the way out.
