Im considering a BMW 328xi coupe 07'?


im 19. Im looking around on websites and the cheapest one in my area is for 6k. The ones i was more trustowrthy of are 9k. I will have the money to pay for it since i will have a ton of left over money from school since I am commuting. So instead of paying 12k to stay on campus, id rather put that towards a car. Anyways, the ones i see do have like 90k-110k miles on it. Personally, i would take it to get inspected before putting a dime down. However, i do plan on replacing some of the parts in the following year anyways if i do get this car. I would like some polite responses about this. On one of them, i checked the car fax since it was free and it had no prior issues, just regular maintenance and some of the parts have been replaced. The most common one i saw was the wipers and next was the air filter. Heres the link for the car. Please let me know what you think.

Added (1). P.S- Ive spoken to some family and friends who owned a bmw and they all said it runs well so long as you maintain it. My mom has been talking with me about getting a honda. My dad had his mercedes since 03 and bought it new. Never had any major issues other than cosmetics and he doesnt take the "best" care of it. My mom used to have a used honda which she paid 5k for back in the 90s. But it broke down more times than we can recall and she invested more money than it was worth into repairing it.
Added (2). basically, i noticed that regardless of what car someone gets, it all boils down to how well a car is maintained. I do plan on getting a manual so if the BMW needs basic repairs, i can do them myself including oil changes which would save me hundreds. I know obviously it would be pricier so if all else fails, ill just get a 500-1000 hooptie and call it a day lol. But id love some feedback. Thank you!
