I'm not sure if they were officially sold by BMW-SA but I've seen two for sale online a few months back.

How did they go for? I can't seem to find any for sale.

Doubt the e34 made it here, e60 are available in M5

Even overseas the e34 in M5 is rare, was built for the export market

I saw one a while ago but they seam to be even more rare then the e34 m5. Look at how good they can look.

And put an m5 body kit on them, wow.

Would like a E34 Touring. Full Stop !!!!

Was looking for a 525I model in rough condition, wanted to convert to a 540i version, seeing that my 540's body is rusty.
Plans on hold due to Z arriving in the driveway :rollsmile:

525iT

Wow looks good, I take it you sold her?

She actually belonged to a friend of my Dad's, which he wanted us to purchase from him... Never got around to that, due to an outstanding Warrant of Arrest on his name.
:shocked: :argh:

Oh well... He passed away recently, and it became deceased estate... I heard his son wanted to sell it... I wonder where it landed up...

That's sad, I saw a red one last night its a 525i but has the m20 engine.

There were quite a few 525i Tourings imported, actually. I think it was part of the same sort of feasibility study thing that resulted in the E36 325i Coupes that found their way here.

That's interesting. Do you know if they came with the double sun roof? I read that the touring m5 was about 100kg heavier then the sedan, do you think if the double sun roof is taken out it will be a little closer to the the sedan's weight? I know 2 sun roof's can't weigh 50kg's each so it must be because it has more glass in the back.

Ok, globally there were 891 e34 ever built, which makes it a fairly rare car.

The ones I've seen have all had the sunroof.
