Are these cars really available for 10 to 15K? And since all of them will be off warranty, will it really be cheaper than a '08 128i to own, insure and maintain?

One of the reasons I got rid of my '03 E46 was because I was sick of the unexpected $1K to $2K service visits (independent BMW shop too). After 3 of these in one year (to the tune of $6K), I decided I'd rather have a car payment and a low mileage, under warranty car.
