Okay, the major problem with the E46's ( 99-05, easier to call them this) is that if they were never in a cold enviroment their valve in the engine will freeze up in the cold. Make sure they have an insulated valve and oil dipstick installed if not this could cost you a lot of money to get fixed if it does freeze. Make sure that the headlights work as well if they are Xenon headlights (expensive if they are burned out). A BMW is great, if it is has been maintained properly, if it has not it will fall apart fast and cost a lot of money in repairs. If you can get pictures that would be the best, also is this a BMW dealership or a private used lot type dealership?
