First, I'm thinking about buying the following vehicle that has a clean Carfax history, one owner, end of lease. 2006 330i 4 door auto Black/Black Sport Package 35000 miles  $28000 1. Does this sound like a good deal? 2. Should I extend the maintenance warranty to 6/100,000 for $1600? 3. I only want to keep the car for 2-3 years or 80,000 miles which ever happens first, is there anything major that I should expect during that time? Thanks a bunch!

Replying to: dittykb (Aug 31, 2007 10:18 am) It doesn't sound too bad, but I don't follow the market that closely. Why not ask over in the "Real-World Trade-In Values" topic. 2. Should I extend the maintenance warranty to 6/100,000 for $1600? Not if you are only going to keep it to 80K. 3. I only want to keep the car for 2-3 years or 80,000 miles which ever happens first, is there anything major that I should expect during that time? Not really; at  60K the car will need the major service which BMW calls an Inspection II. It costs from $500-$700 depending on where you live and who performs the work. You might need brakes as well- $250-$500 an axle subject to the previously mentioned variables. I'd also figure in a couple of oil changes -which is a dead easy DIY procedure- and that's about it. I'd be extremely surprised if the maintenance/repair costs exceeded $50/month from 35K-80K.
