Looking to purchase first bemer, skeptical so please help me out for those knowledgeable. I was looking at an 03 porsche boxster, and i found a nice used one for 30 but i backed off bc i do not know the maintainance level and i heard there are alot of payments to keep that car up and i want a car thatll last me a long time and not be a headache as well. I heard certain cautions with just washing the soft top and havintg to drive it regularly or else batter will fail so i moved on... i came across the bmw and liked the new 07 coupe bc of the new warranty which covers all maintainace and i test drove and fell in love, i was wondring if i wait a while how much do yuo think the price will deppreciate for a used one...and how long wil these cars last, above 100k and after the warranty is over will i have alot of trouble, does anybody have bmw assist, how is that? please give me any insight or advice, thanks!

The price of the new coupes will not go down that much. They're a hot car right now and I know people won't have problems with the new coupes. I have owned a 86' 325, 91' 318, 93' 540, and a 93' 328. ALL over 150 thousand miles and ran excellent (the 86' 325 has 225 thousand) I would wait a year and try to get one that's been used. I know you want a 07 but the best time to buy a 06 is now, when the new models come out last years models have great pricing and great offers. I dont know why that is but it is what it is.

one thing you should find out, seeing you like the warranty and the maintenance included. Does the free maintenance apply to original owner only? The warranty would continue with any owner,but may not be the same with the maintenance.
