I would go for the newer one, as many of the replacements needed are related to age more than mileage.
But, FWIW, I'm planning for an E38 as soon as the new style comes out. I figure a 96 or newer E38 will be in the mid teens in a year or so.
Its gonna cost you $3,000 to $5,000 per year to own a 750 today no matter what. Getting the newer one may actually be cheaper in the long run.
Good luck.

I have a 92 735i-- 87k pretty tight.. I drove a 90 750 the other day and am now clear why its sought after even over the 740-- it is more car.
The question is--- get a 90ish for 10-12 or go for a 94 for 18-20 . will the 90 eat 8 k in 2 years--- seems like it according to these boards. Maybe it would be a better deal to get the newer car. or are they all 3-400 /mon to run
I know to get one with good service history. dont fudge on that one.... thanks for sage advice John
Plus are they hard cars to sell- seems like when they are for sale -- they stay around forever.?
