You won't regret it! I've got 53k on my '01 E46 and I've loved it. I'm ready for something new, and the new M3 was my choice (deposit 10/05); so far, I am not dissapointed with what I've seen. My '01 has been very trouble-free and never not started or left me stranded. Maintenance is not bad with BMW picking ujp most items for 4 years, which is a rarity (or maybe unique?) these days. The S65 will not require valve adjustments, either, which are the most expensive maintenance item on the S54. Go for it!
