Apparently, I just learned that there was a BMW M5 Wagon test car with the legendary S70/2 engine from the McLaren F1 shoved in it! And, it still exists somewhere in a warehouse next to things the rest of Humanity isn’t ready for.

Just imagine picking up your kids from school in that thing! I imagine it would look something like this:

What do you think?

I don’t think it was in that video but there’s still a lot of cool prototypes they show.

Man, if only they brought it out for when we were celebrating BMW at the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion!

What color is it?

There's an M5 Cabriolet in the same warehouse

I have no clue. I haven’t seen it.

I just read that it's been kept in secret and no articles I've seen so far have the actual pictures.

BMW was very close to producing the body style but decided not to as it would eat into sales of the profitable higher trim  3- Series cabrios.

Funny enough, those 3-series cabriolets were my mom’s dream cars.
