Gotta echo mackeroni's comment about stock vs breathed on. Kept stock the reliability should be OK. I had almost 80k miles on my '08 and I kept after the little things, oil changes, air filters, regular brake fluid changes (2 year intervals).
At 67k miles check to see if the brakes front & rear have had rotors and pads replaced. That'll be a $1500+ chunk if they haven't and they will need to be replaced soon if they haven't.
Try to get a BMW dealer to run the VIN for a maintenance history and find out if the high pressure fuel pump has been replaced (which it should be - I think for an '09) and if any of the direct fuel injectors have also been replaced. On the N54 engines the fuel injectors are PRICEY items.
The '08 135i I had was more reliable than the Miata it replaced (believe it or not) it just cost significantly more to maintain. Remember BMW stands for 'Break My Wallet'.
