It had deliberate for the sedan to account for two-thirds of all M5 manufacturing, however patrons are flocking to the touring, even within the US.
Late final month, BMW M boss Frank van Meel revealed in an interview that there was “a better demand within the US for the Touring than for the sedan.” Hopefully, it is sufficient to persuade BMW to carry the M3 Touring right here, which the corporate first steered final 12 months might occur.
