So I am starting to look at e60 545's. Any advice or trouble spots to look for? They seem to be really reasonably priced in the $17.5 - 20,000 range.

I went and test drove one today with about 59000 miles. It was a one owner CEO car (saw the title). I was a little upset though because it threw a code the minute it started and was in safe mode. They cleared the code and it ran fine after. Did a 20 minute test drive and never threw it again. It appeared that it might just have been sitting for a while on the lot in the cold. But, it kind of had me scratching my head. Overall it was in great shape and priced at 17,999.

Any thoughts or advice would be welcomed.

Thanks!
