[QUOTE="tallfreak, post: 14399788, member: 70717"] This is true. The M54 is a great engine. I have customers with over 300K and still running strong. Just be prepared for the higher maintenance costs. They are fairly simple to work on as far as replacing gaskets and cooling system parts, but the parts are more expensive. Stay away from cheap replacement parts, especially in the cooling system. They rarely fit well. An E46 325 or 330 with a manual transmission is a great DD that will run forever if treated well. Have the car checked out by a reputable BMW or at least German repair shop before you buy. They will know what to look for. If you're in the Memphis area looking at cars, the shop I work for does free inspections. [/QUOTE]
