welcome to the Forum!
you don't mention whether you want new or preowned, but you don't seem opposed to doing your own tinkering. if that's the case than consider the E39/530 Touring. I had a 540i sedan that I kept for 17 years, but I'd urge you to avoid the V8 unless you REALLY enjoy replacing gaskets, seals, valley pans and so forth.
imho the E39/M54 with manual and sport suspension is one of the 3 or 4 best platforms ever from BMW.
you'll have to be patient to find a good one, but the good news is that most of these Touring owners are fanatics who famously over-maintain their cars.
