It is about all of the following (and some):
- Extreme Performance in an ordinary looking 4-door sedan.
- Very business looking, very conservative.
- A wolf in sheep's clothing.
It is the ultimate "sleeper" looking car. Until you look at the fat rear tires, the quad exhaust tips that just barely hint at the performance capabilities.
The E60 on the other hand is also about looks (assuming you are into the "Bangle" looks). I would much rather take the E39 any day.

I did. They really high balled the price at first then ended up taking $1000 or so off. I paid $2650 for 36 months/75k with a $100 deductable (please don't tell me I got shafted lol).
