Which Torx sizes?

Gents, it’s Amazon prime day. What range of Torx sockets have you required working on your 6-er? I do not intend to do transmission work on my own.

Also, have you run across requirement for e-torx? If yes which size and for what?
Your thoughts most appreciated.

T25 is the single most common Torx. Not sure the largest I've used. I own up to T50 but have not used one that large on a BMW. Just get a decent set starting at T10 and buy them one-off if you need really large ones. Yes, there are number of places that use e-Torx. One that comes immediately to mind is the bolts that hold the various drive shaft flanges.
