I owned about 6 different BMWs.  I will just say they don't hold their value at all and the depreciate like crazy.  Most had some form of electrical problem one time or another.  Couple had alternators go at 70k miles or so, and they were expensive.  I still remember the $3k repair bill I got the 2001 330i at only 70k miles.  They were fun to drive but expensive to maintain.

I had a few Hondas and a few Lexus.  2006 Lexus RX400h is by far the most reliable car I had.  Never one problem.  I just did the regular maintenance and tire change.  Original tire lasted a long time on the car too.  When I was selling the car, I had 17 calls in couple of days.  Lexus and Honda really hold their values for resell.

When selling my BMWs, I was lucky to get a few calls in a couple of weeks.  Those people that want BMWs also were nitpicking everything too.  BMWs just don't resell very well.

Now I have a new Lexus NX200t.  It is a great little SUV.  I also got a Tesla.  My Tesla had a crack sunroof before 10k miles and a few minor electrical stuff, but were fixed after software upgrade.

If you want a luxury car that hold its resell value and won't give you any problem, get a Lexus.  If money is an issue, get a Honda.
