Me being a car enthusiast, I'd definitely choose a E39 or a E39 M5. A friend of mine recently copped one and the only thing that you really need to be weary of is the cooling system, which he replaced after his purchase.

With BMWs I hear they run good and are strong, but then on the other hand I hear they are a PAIN IN THE when it comes to repairs and Maintenance. I know they are Better than Audi and Benz, but I`m not trying to get my self in something I cant handle if it cost 8k everytime I need work on my car feel me? I`m not tryna be on no wanna be baller stuff, I just want a good ride that looks good and is gonna last me a long time. My past cars have been beat and I feel this is like a graduation gift for me.

Don't listen to this
You can cop a CPO'd Lexus in your price range and not have to worry about any problems...
My Lex is covered for the next 4 years or until I hit the 125k mile mark...(I bought extended coverage+the CPO warranty)

What would you say about mileage for GS I`m be looking at 06+ for ES 07+?
And how is maintenance cost? I know Lexus is suppose to be a tad higher than Toyota which is good, but would ES be cheaper to maintain than the GS?

Idk about the maintenance/repair costs because I've yet to have a major problem, and the minor problems that I did have was covered under warranty (leaking gas cap)... Oil Changes are about $80-$90 at the dealership. If you decide to cop one that doesnt have a warranty... Just go to a local indy shop for repairs. ES's and GS's arent complex cars...So indy shops wont be scared to touch them like they are with the newer German cars.

I felt EVERYTHING on the road when I road in one of those joints. And the interior is an economy car at Enterprise.
Also, STi's come with turbo.

The 5 serious BMWs is nice, but idk if I`m about that life. I guess I`m being bias because I usually see dudes who copped early 00 high mile junts that complain about them not being car, one of my old co workers was like BMWs are the truth though.
for sup 25k I see some 5 series with sup 60k miles on em

arent they covered up to 100k like most whips? hell I`d prob do an extended warranty too.
I`m looking to put like 5-10k down, cause I really dont want a 600 dollar note or some crap, something in the 400s or under lol.
