My 21’ m340i xdrive was oil changes annually and a new set of tires. Need a new set soon. About $1,000 for pilot sports. Did brakes last week. $600 for the rears. At 70,000 miles.
I’d never buy a used car with more than 30-40k miles. If it’s around 30k-40k miles, I’d say you should be mostly problem free but you’ll have some maintenance things to take care of: Brakes and fluid
I’m on my second lightly used BMW. first one had 25k miles and was totaled at 60k, current one was bought around the same time and is now at 40k. Both have been great. A little pricey on maintenance because it’s around the time when things like brakes need to be replaced but completely worth it in my opinion.
After researching, I'm going to go for the Hawk HPS 5.0 next time I go to the track or wear my current ones down. From what I've read, it's a comparable to the oem feel, but produces less dust, which sounds really nice for my occasional trip to the track and for keeping my wheels clean.
The rotors I used are DBA 4000 series T3, and pads are HAWK HPS 5.0
Once your stock brake pads are toast as well I’d upgrade them to something like Hawk’s HPS 5 pads.
Have a 16 535i, took ownership at ~30k km and now at ~80k km. Front brake pads (re used old rotor but will change once I get through current set).
Hawk 5.0 can be *okay* if you aren't pushing to hard yet but theyre going to be a limitation.
I get less than one race out of Hawk Blue. Had to replace at around 28 hours.
I tried Hawk HP+ dual use but they were exactly as people warned. Worst of both worlds.
