I purchased a 1997 e39 528i with only 21K miles on it! How did I luck out?!
I never really bonded with this car though...I didn't like how it accelerated when you hit resume on the cruise control, the OBC sucked! and if I wanted an aftermarket stereo (which I did) I had to give that up anyway. The radio was Double Din so in order to get a new stereo I lost all functions of clock and anything else the OBC gave me. The glove compartment was tiny...and I dunno...it just didn't scream BIMMER to me.
Perhaps that's why I only had it for 4 months and then some idiot rear-ended me and now it's TOTALLED. You heard right. They totally that perfect car with only 28K miles on it.
