I was watching Nobel on Netflix and lo, I saw a sight I had never imagined: a long roof e60 (e61) M5. Ahhhh, we never got this, WTF.

I think they sold them in the UK but I’ve never seen one. The saloons aren’t a hugely common sight, these are probably pretty rare.

Pretty sure we got that in the US. I’ve seen them driving around and there was a 535i wagon on CarMax once that I was eyeballing.

I’m fairly certain the M5 version of that body style was never offered in the states.

Interestingly the E90 M5 Sedan are still fairly common to see in my area(Tennessee)

Nope. You can get the 535i only, with a few caveats. All of them are xdrive/AWD, no RWD config. There are a handful with the manual. And there is a badass sport auto that you can get on the sedan but I do not believe it is available on the wagon (that is really what I want/is wife approved. Probably have to settle for the normal auto blah)
