I love cars!
I'm looking hard at swapping my '06 G sedan for an '01 740il (three growing boys!), so I sy go for it! That V8 is sweet and I haven't heard horror stories about the 4.4L version. I think the enjoyment will come from the DIY *and* driving. Let us nkow how it goes.

My aunt has an older BMW 7-Series. Not sure what exact model. 7xx Li I know that much. It has well over 200,000 miles and it still runs 140+mph. The only thing is, she said it will not run on regular gasoline. Premium or nothing. It's still rolling to this day!

Doing an oil change on a 540i (and most other BMWs) is possibly one of the easiest things you can do to a car.

Did you honestly think it was an even trade? Sorry but the TL's value dropped like a stone when the tranny issues started years ago. $1000 + your car for the 540 would have been a steal.
