Description:
From 1956 to 1959, a total of 252 BMW 507s were produced.
BMW presented the Type 507 at the IAA 1955. With a price of almost DM 30, 000, the car was almost as expensive as a Mercedes 300 SL, which was only offered as a roadster from 1957. This meant that it was only affordable for extremely well-heeled customers, which also led to an extremely low production figure of just 252 vehicles. The car was designed by industrial designer Albrecht Graf Goertz. The body was made of aluminium. Today, the 507 is considered a design icon and is a highly sought-after collector's item.
For sale is an exceptionally well-preserved BMW 507 project with an almost untouched body. According to available documents, the car was produced in 1957 and delivered in Venezuela in 1958. In the early 80s, the car arrived in Miami. At the end of the 80s, Jose C. Harth acquired the car and brought it back to Venezuela, where it became part of his outstanding collection. This is a unique opportunity to complete an absolutely exceptional vehicle, which is also Mille-Miglia-capable due to its early year of construction.
