Not sure if this is what they go for, but seems mighty cheap with the alpina interior:-

It's cheap, until you have to repair it. Being based on an E39 540i, that will mean regularly. They're nice, but you require deep pockets to run it properly.

Very very true! Dealer always adds at least 1k on price so this one looks too cheap!

Those front seats are actually the high end comfort spec. one of the most comfotable seats I've ever sat in. They are not your normal standard e39 seat.

Barry had them in a recent 528i now owned by Ste30.

They are more suportive than they look.
