80s: The E24 6-series. Beautiful elegant shape, surpassed only by the Porsche 928S4 of the period.

90s: The E38 7-series. The perfect clean, understated luxury sedan.

00s: The E86 Z4 coupe - far and away the most successful Bangle-era exterior design, and the interior has an engaging retro-minimalist look to it. Not as derivative as the Z8 or Z3, but a completely modern interpretation of a classic segment - the 2-seat sports car. The runner up would be the E92 - elegant flowing lines, luxurious but non-distracting interior, the car flows across the eye.
totally agree with these! also with the posts about the M1. The first time I saw one in person was when I picked up my E90 at the Performance Center and one was parked outside... simply stunning
