I'm assuming your asking about an older one b/c the new ones have great warranties. My 1998 has 76,000 miles and my mechanic said, "You think you have a lot of miles? It's not even broken in until 75,000. It'll last you longer than you want it.
I've had mine for almost two years, and the quality of my '02 M3 has been outstanding. Only had one small problem that was quickly repaired by BMW Service.
a NEW engine is expensive but thats because of the extra technology used to gain power and keep reliability. the M3 and M5 engines in general will still last 200k-250k miles unless your permanatly on a track or bezzing all the time on the road.
general rule of thumb is BMW will last 200k miles and still pull better than most cars on the road of a similar original price. as long as the car is serviced regularly at a competent dealer for inspec1 and 2 then this will be true. my e30 325i gets serviced and looked after very well and at 150k miles it can still surprise even some motorbikers.
