You are likely correct. There cannot be many out there in that condition. Especially, like you said, that haven't been hacked on by inexperienced mechanics. I bought mine knowing it had been worked on by a "BMW mechanic". Was clearly not the case. I have owned and wrenched on many bimmers so I wasn't too worried. Especially for the price I got it for.
Again, it's a beauty! I'm sure it will be on the road for many years to come. Enjoy it!

Thank you!
I'll use my response to give quick update:
Currently, X5 is at my good friend house getting proper buffing. It was taken care of and clearly been garaged some of its life but never properly buffed.
I did VC gaskets and top of engine is extremely clean . I also did thermostat (it was stuck open), new NGK BKR6EQUP plugs, new Bosck O2 sensors and few other cosmetic things.
It runs like a dream.
I cleaned the BMW stupid coating of the steering wheel and cleaned all 4 wheels inside and out and change wheel caps.
