Vehicle History:
Right from its debut at the 1955 International Motor Show, the car catapulted the BMW brand abruptly into the public eye. The design is undoubtedly one of the all-time favorites of automotive design. Elvis Presley, Alain Delon, Toni Sailer and Aga Khan were already proud owners of this rare series.
This 507 was delivered new to Zurich in 1957 via the Swiss BMW dealer Motag. For more than 40 years the 507 was owned by a Mr. Pichler in Zurich. From 2007-2009, the car was restored in Switzerland under the supervision of Lukas Hüni, preserving the original interior. In 2013, this 507 won third prize at Pebble Beach. In 2016, the car was purchased by BMW Classic in Munich. A short time later, the BMW was sold to its last owner in Belgium, where it was registered until recently.
