Today, the fast, family-friendly BMW comes in the form of a crossover like the X5 M, or its lamer, uglier coupe-over sibling, the X6 M. But there was a time when the practical M car took the form of a sleek, speedy station wagon, the likes of which are now the stuff of legend, and the subject of high-dollar tribute builds. One of the cars that garnered BMW such a following was the M5 Touring, a hand-built super-wagon that so finely balanced luxury, performance and practicality that it would top every Bimmerist’s wishlist had BMW built more than 891 examples. Given its rarity, it’s always newsworthy when an M5 Touring comes up for sale—which is why we’re shouting from the rooftops than an example will be sold on Bring A Trailer in a couple hours’ time.
The example in question, a 1992 model, was originally a car with European specifications, meaning it has a 3.8-litre later edition of BMW’s natural suction six-cylinder S38. Its 335 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque pass through a five-speed manual transmission to the rear wheels and can cause the bulky M5 Touring to pass from a prevention to 60 miles per hour in less than six seconds. Like German cars with consistent maximum performance, it is electronically limited to 155 mph, which have limited their E34 M5 claim to have noticed speeds as high as 170.
Originally sold in Germany, this M5 Touring imported into California in 2007 and under a new owner, its interior has been preserved and the exterior has repainted its Diamontschwarz (Diamond Black) metal factory. He emigrated to New York in 2014 and continued to get the interview he deserves, so his odometer indicates approximately 239,000 miles. Given this car point, it would not be unexpected if the car’s built-in phone could still send and receive calls.
Make a $45,000 offer with only a few hours to pass, this M5 Touring would possibly already be in its final promotional value, as the highest offer is already $500 above what sold the newest M5 Touring in Bring A Trailer. Again, given the site’s propensity to extract shocking sums of cash for pedestrian cars in a different way, the value of this M5 Touring tour can also pass from the thousands before the hammer falls this afternoon. It is better to make a quick loan for a moment if you need to increase its Array value.. Or locate your new home in your garage.
