If I was shopping for a DD for my CEO, it would not be a 9 or 11 yr old E53...
Our '01 is in great shape, and I trust it, but if the Boss was driving daily, to work, shop, etc., I would send her in another car.
Surprised your wife hasn't pursued the Lexus.
Mpg/cost of gas won't be your main concern, when one of those very old E53s goes sideways. But, if I had to choose I would pick the 3.0, but look longer and harder.
There are lots full of <$15,000G 3.0s, and other similar cars, for sale out there in used car land.
