It will...I'd want it pretty loaded up and with even a decent residual, we'd be looking at $900++ for lease.

I've owned E39 540, X6 50i and E92 M3's, so I know what its like to own a V8. They are wonderful engines.

But with the 540i fast as it is, that might be the sweet spot in value and performance. If you call $70k value lol!
