hey guys iam looking at a 2013 640i GC. very very well equipped, it has 56000miles on it and its a going for a reasonable price... I know nothing about the 6 series so was wondering is this a good reliable car or will it nickel and dime me to death??

Like most BMWs, the engines are shared across the line-up. From a mechanical standpoint, it should be similar to others in the line-up with the same powerplant - and the inline 6's are pretty solid. That said, the larger the series number (5, 6, 7, soon 8...) the more expensive they typically get to maintain outside of warranty - just a general rule of thumb. If in doubt, just make sure to get a good after-market (e.g. Fidelity) warranty or CPO car.
