    Advice on purchasing a 2011 535i

    I'm looking to trade my e39 for an f10. Just wanting something a bit more modern and an opportunity has fallen into my lap.

    2011 535i sport package. Fbo with a downpipe, intercooler, charge pipe, catback.

    Has all the dynamic suspension bits and such.

    What should i expect to give me problems at 150k miles?
    I'm assuming gaskets, cooling system, and general suspension maintenance.

    How long does the turbo last?

    How will this compare to my e39?

    How much does this thing actually weigh?

    Should probably mention that the e39 has a front eibach sway bar, rear dinan swaybar, and kw v1 coilovers.

    Will the f10 with similar mods handle the same or worse?
