650ci '08 with 80k miles or '06 with 20k miles? Help!

I really need you guys expertise. I've been looking at cars for a while. It finally decided that the best choice for a 4 seat sporty convertible with a strong motor and great looks is the 650ci. No doubt a bout that!!
I narrow it down to 2 choices:
2008 triple black (my favorite color combination for any car) with the nicer 19' rims very good condition inside and out with 86k miles on it with only 1 owner.
2006 champagne with black top and cYream interiors (looks good but not my favorite, sorry no offense to any member) very good conditions, regular 19' rims from factory and 2 owners.
Boths have premium package with nav, although 08 is more modern no entry key to turn on, iPod connection, paddle shifters and it has all the manuals.
I always bought new cars but this is $90k plus taxes in PR are 33% which actually Makes it a $120k car down here so I need to buy it used. As you can see I love the 2008 model but I'm concern with the resale price because of the high millage and also any repairs because of the millage. Not sure if any of the 2 qualify for extended warranty. The 2006 is nice with a price of $31k. And the 2008 with a price of $37k. I'll apretiate all your advices.

I would look hard at the newer car. Age of the car will cause more problems than frequent driving, in my opinion.

I would keep looking. The 08 has way too many miles and the 06 isn't really your favorite combo. Personally I stick with low miles over model year any day because a car is a consumable good and it wears away the more you drive it.

+1 on Stan's comment. Keep looking.

Buy the car you like the best, because you will be the one driving it. It sounds like both of the cars are out of warranty, so both could cost a small fortune if anything major happens. If you are in PR, sounds like an aftermarket warranty will be a must! With limited resources in your area, all repairs will probably be expensive. You will most likely have to wait on parts several days for most anything. I would do a search for the major problems that a BMW can have. The 2 most expensive common repairs will be the coolant pipe failure, or the valve seal failure. Each of these could cost you between 5 to 10k in repairs. You are buying a higher end car, that comes with expensive repairs. Take your time & make the best choice for you. With the car having 4 seat capacity, you will really only have 2. If you put an infant seat in the rear passenger seat, who ever sits in front will be very cramped.

Good Luck!

I don't know man. Depend on how the owner drive the car. I prefer the 06' from this case since they are not much different. If you buying a high miles car from me LOL (just saying) then you probably worry free. I don't know what's different between 06 and 08. I got a 09 but it looks no different with the 04 from far.

However, why a 06's having 20k miles??? So miserable.
