I have owned my BMW for about one and a half years and put about 7,000 miles on it in that time. It was bought pre-owned for relatively cheap. The overall quality of the vehicle is fantastic. The doors close with a solid "thud", the ride is nice, there aren't any consistent rattles, and I haven't had any major problems with it in the time I've owned it.

The German engineering in this car is exceptional, over 150,000 miles and the car still runs like new. Keeping up with normal maintenance is the trick behind keeping it in such good condition. The car is 13 years old and the leather in the backseat still looks brand new and can rival most new cars on the market. The wood trim has held up better than anyone could ask for, along with most of the tools on the inside. No matter what, this car is fun.
