Hmmmm no disrespect but i think if you have to ask then you are better off avoiding an e65 7 series. They cost what they do brand new for a reason. Just because they cost the same as the 3er used now does not mean service, maintenance and parts have depreciated too. Same as say a 10 year old Ferrari 360. May have depreciated plenty but insurance, servicing, parts, labour etc are still very expensive.
If you are seriously considering one then you may be better buying used from a BMW dealer, particularly one from the platinum program as these cars have been certified to a high standard and thus bmw offer free maintenance and warranty for 2 years. So in that time just insurance, rego and petrol to think about.
Despite their age remember this was the flagship model of their time, meaning first for everything and the technology slowly filters down to lesser models over many years. Meaning plenty both electrical and mechanical which can go wrong and thus $$$$$.
