Default the best way to restore my 550i to run like new

hey everyone, my 550i has 86,000 miles on it and I want to restore it back to running like new, what parts of the engine and (the rest of the vehicle) should I replace/upgrade?

Sorry if I am a little vague. I appreciate your help.

If I were to restore my car to brand new condition or as close as possible I would replace all the following all suspension components, all fluids, all filters, spark plugs, brake pads and rotors and, possibly unnecessary but why not, coils. Finally make sure to reset any and all adaptions that car may have learned over the years.
