1) New amp: I would like to go with a 50/60W per channel amp in the $3/400 range. I know it has to be stable at 2ohms for the stock subs.
-Which brand?
-Do I need 4 channels or 6 channels to power all 10 drivers?
-Is the stock amp on the E93 behind the head unit in the center console?
-Would the new amp replace or tap off the stock amp?

2) Front tweeters replacement: since I want to keep the mid drivers for now, do I need to replace the crossovers as well?

Thanks!
1) For that budget, I would go with the JL Audio G6600amp: 6-channel, accepts balanced input, 2 ohms stable, individual crossovers, 110W RMS x 6 at 2 ohms output.

Nice platform for an eventual speakers upgrade. It is some $350 at eBay.

2) Swap the OEM amp first, tune it and then decide if you need a tweeter upgrade.
