High milage used but not abused

This 528i xdrive with 134000 miles runs beautifully and looks new. I purchased over a year ago and it is a great vehicle with excellent gas milage and performance. I will be looking to purchase a new 5 series very soon.

2013 550i

Addition: Well, I sold my car last week. I found out that the car has inherent issues with the motor. I was warned by my mechanic to sell it while it was still smog legal otherwise I would have to have the engine rebuilt; $6k+. Seems BMW - made a bad motor that cooks the oil which in turn can wreck the valve sleeves. I did think it was interesting that I had to add a qt. of oil every 2m miles. Even "Consumer Reports" has that car model listed as Worst used cars. It's a big car feel. Not sporty like my 2010 128i. Even with the adjustable suspension settings, the car feel for like a straight forward cruiser designed for long trips on fast freeways. 550i's V-8 twin turbo, is an awesome engine, that is effortlessly swift with barely noticeable shifting. Styling is still one of my favorites. I am averaging 23 mpg with roughly 75% freeway/25% city type miles.
