Hey guys...
Bang for the buck..which is the best choice.
Want to buy a 2004-07 E60 and get the M5 kit and wheels and custom exhaust.
As a base car which one should i go with?
Horsepower is not a priority...spending less is...keep in mind I would be painting the whole car
Let me know your thoughts.

The 545 has a 4.4 V8 and is more powerful and a tad bit less reliable then 525/530. The 525 is your best bet. Whats your budget?

Dude,
From your screen name I suspect you like POWER, since your not looking at the M5 right now, I would tell you to look at a V8 either a 545 or a 550.
A smart thing would be to buy an LCI car with the stuff you want on there but otherwise look for something that fits your budget.
Good Luck
