High Mileage 335i Owners

I'm likely going to get into a 335i with 50k + miles. Just looking to get opinions from some high mileage 335i owners. How is the car holding up? Any major problems so far? Any advice appreciated, thanks.

I'm at 61K miles already; had to get my transmission/mechatronics sleeve sealed/replaced, as well as the control arm bushings replaced (leaked). Also, battery died on me a few months ago. These were done after the warranty was up since last summer.

Likely will not be a CPO, but will have a warranty through another company.

I have 68k on my 07 E92 335i . The car runs like a bull expecially after the fuel pump and injecters got replaced.

I dont cruise in my car, I run the car, there is not a day that goes by that I dont do over 100 Mph

Word of Advise:

If the car has CPO make sure to ask when last the breaks and rotars were replaced. If its been a long period of time then try to close the deal if they would replace the breaks and rotars for you first.

Same thing applies to oil change and other services.

Anyone go a route other than CPO, I'm looking at a third party warranty that looks fairly comprehensive.

63K on mine. No problems other than replacing the SAT Radio module under warranty.

I follow the "old school" maintenance routine for the most part.
