Regular maintenance isn't that expensive. What gets expensive is repair work when things fail...

I loved mine but it was always in the shop, it only had 30K when I sold it back to BMW, loved the ride, loved the power, loved the looks, great gas mileage, but too many problems no matter what year you get, just get a good warranty and get use to driving a courtesy car.

+1 02-03 7 series are headaches and nightmares. But benz does not kill BMW at all in any way lol BMW has better handling, performance, power, cheaper maintenance/cost. What else is left?

Dont do it..Had a 2003 745li and there were always some type of lights telling me there was a problem. One time the battery completely died for no reason(heard is was common)...Had it for only 2 1/2 months then got rid of it.

I own one right now just like Lees and they've been pretty trouble free other than the typical things that went out...
