If you are considering buying this car, you will need a good Psychiatrist and a winning lottery ticket.


Definitely, haha.

Fun to drive but they cost A LOT in maintenance and any repairs. I had a 2008 335xi coupe and I can tell you first hand, if you don't have a few thousand on hand for an "any moment" repair, don't consider it.

Assuming it is the N52 engine.

Pros:

Great engine core.

Naturally balanced engine.

Strong performance.

Core can last a long time if properly maintained. 

Cons:

Cost an arm and a leg to maintain. 

Periphery components around the engine will need repair and maintenance.

Cost an arm and a leg to maintain.

iDrive.

Cost an arm and a leg to maintain.

You didn’t tell us if this will be a daily driver or not, or what your overall plans for the vehicle will be.  If it’s going to be a daily driver that you put a ton of miles on each year, then forget it:  it’s already 13-14 years old and it will become a money pit over time if it’s not already there (depending on the mileage).

As Scotty calls them: "endless money pits".
