Sounds great, until you read the whole article.
"Of those nine, eight have been pre-sold. Six will be destroyed as press fleet vehicles by voracious wagon-loving media members, one has been reserved as a corporate errand car at BMW's North American headquarters and one is headed to its South Carolina museum to be preserved for posterity. That leaves just a single 2014 BMW M5 Sports Wagon xDrive35d set to be offered to the public - a sales challenge that even BMW admits will be tough to overcome."

I did read the whole article and the upshot is that BMW wants to build a tempered down version of the same car for the USA.

The only redeeming qualities are that it IS still an Avant and that it has a FMIC. Besides that, no thanks.

Audi offers so many wagons outside of the US. Not fair

Here's a nice pic. Just to pour salt on our bitter wounds.
Whoever owns that car painted the tips of the spokes to match the paint. Looks nasty IMO. Should have left the tips of the spokes the original gun metal color.

That or, I'm just blinded by "Audi" and "Avant". And overlooking the tipped rims.

The wheels on that Allroad don't fit it at all. They would look fine on an Evo or 240sx, but it looks really out of place like that.

Yummy is clearly blind thinking that craptastic rims work on that car.
