If I would come to visit the US, what would be the best "place" to rent a E60?

The price to rent an E60 is so outrageous at least here in LA (I've seen $400-500/day) that you could more economically buy one and then sell it a couple of months later... Even though that's a pain to do.

Maybe someone else will have a better suggestion.

I don't know if they have any E60's but they do have BMWs and I think they only serve the Washington DC area.
