Found the right car at the wrong time. Thanks to the soft E39 M5 market, the E39 540's can be had for less than a song. I wanted to go for a 2001 M5, but came across this gem at the right price. Finally, after a 5 year hiatus, I have another E39!
It's a 2001 540 6spd, sport premium. 47k miles, and interior and exterior are 9/10's. I'm a happy camper.
Here are some pics from the seller right before I got it.

Congratulations, great looking car! Thanks for all your intelligent posts over the years.
Cheers!
Thanks for the kind words, and thank you Adam. It's nice to finally be a full part of the community, rather than someone on the other side of the fence looking in.
Laidback- I'm in it for $22,000.
I'm in love, but I think it needs a 525i badge...
Cangrats Bren. Are you going to do anything to it, like the M bumper package?
Get paid (recoup the down payment...), then the beastpower rear sway bar brackets, and the CDV delete. After that, I think I'll leave it alone for awhile.
A friend has a Dinan LSD for it unused, so I might look into that. We should meet up for dinner at some point soon too.
