In the USA, an extremely rare 1992 BMW M5 Touring was auctioned off. The nearly 30-year-old wagon fetched $51,000—about the same as a new BMW 5 Series across the ocean.

Certainly, the BMW M5 E34 wagon is a very rare model, as only 891 were built in total. It is equipped with a 3.8-liter inline-six engine with 340 hp and a 5-speed manual transmission. The acceleration to 100 km/h takes about 6 seconds, and the maximum speed is 250 km/h.

Meanwhile, the BMW M5 Touring has a very restrained appearance—with modest body kits and 17-inch wheels. The interior is trimmed in leather, and the BMW M5 package includes climate control, a telephone, and heated seats.

The car’s mileage is a whole 385,000 km.

However, in 2012, the BMW wagon underwent a restoration with repainting, suspension replacement, optics, and exhaust.
