    Moon Buying 2008 BMW 335i - Need advise

    I love 6 speed manuals and I am debating buying a 2008 BMW 335i 6 speed manual with 67K miles on it. Dealer listed the price for $9995. The car is in a very good condition with 6k miles driven on an average per year. Please give me inputs / you help on the below.



    1.Will it make a good buy. What are the common issues in this 2008 N54 engines. What are the common things I have to be aware of before buying.
    2. Is it better to avid 11 year old car?
    3. can we get a Vehicle history report other than car fax in a detail way (I heard some car fax reports can be manipulated)

    Appreciate your help guys

    Get a prepurchase inspection carfax is a joke. Injectors, valve cover, oil filter stand and oil pan gaskets. They had many versions of the injectors if during the pre purchase inspection they could check the version numbers of the injectors that would be nice to know, I think there on 13 now. Carbon build up in the intake ports because the the direct fuel injection.
