Looks like well be getting an M5 Variant on our shores here pretty soon, obviously BMW will not be outdone by Mercedes' equally cool E55 AMG Sportwagon.

I actually like that a lot more than the sedan. Sleek, understated goodness.

It IS much nicer than the Sedan, thats why i bought one, the sedans rear quater panel is too big, and makes the rear wheel look tiny.

Damn Bangle, Bring back the good old 540i days....

I HATE car thiefs!

(BTW that isnt mine, it was identical though)

Never cared for wagons, even in the '70's, and that's no exception I'm afraid....

I'll take the sedan, or a 4 by over a wagon..

But the BMW is not to my taste

Sweeeeet!

I have always had a soft spot for 5 series wagons.....although I personally don't want to own one as my daily driver. (it makes me feel kinda soccer mom)

Also, most wagons I have encountered are never totally tight/quiet/rattleproof ....the rear compartment is just too large (acoustic chamber) structurally its weaker, and its a matter of time before rattles and squeaks start showing up IMHO.

That being said I am currently unable to convice my mom not to plop down $70G's on a Volvo XC70 wagon......(yeah its expensive in Japan).....wagon folks are a different breed maybe.
