Newb here: Looking at a 2007 E70 4.8i tomorrow............

Hi Guys (and Gals, if applicable)!

I've been a lurker here for awhile and find that there is quite a bit of knowledge on the E70's here, so I'm going to ask this of you, if you don't mind:

What problems or things should I look for when buying a 2007 E70 4.8i?

I've read that there are problems with the drive by wire throttle, but is there anything else that I should look for?

We've had our eyes out for a lower mileage 4.8i in Space Gray with most of the options and one of the dealers called Monday saying that they're getting a LOADED (he said Every factory option) Space Gray 4.8i with 31k miles on the clock. That's higher mileage than I wanted, but he said that he'd CPO it for us to give us 100k on the warranty, which is nice because otherwise, I'd keep waiting for a lower mile one to come along.

I've done my research and know what the KBB, Edmunds, NADA and know what all of those say, but would like to get your opinion on what you think that it's worth.

I Apologize for the rant, but I'd like to get the opinions of people that I know will give me straight advice and know what these cost and are worth.

Thanks Very Much in Advance!
