I rather like the bad rap older, high mile BMWs get. It allows me to search the used car market for good 7+ yr old vehicle and pick them up for less then 25% new price.
A clean, well maintained, 100k mile vehicle that sold for almost $60k new and can be had for under $13k is right in my wheelhouse! Add to that the fact you don't seen them at every stoplight.
