Confirmed Concours Cars: Designed by Albrecht von Goertz, the BMW 507 was introduced in 1956 as a luxury roadster intended to appeal to the American market.Under the bonnet, it housed a 3.2-liter V8 engine producing around 150bhp, paired with a four-speed manual transmission. This allowed the 507 to reach speeds up to 122 mph. It was built on a shortened version of the BMW 503’s platform, using a tubular steel frame, and featured independent front suspension system with double wishbones, torsion bar springs, and an anti-roll bar – advanced for its time. The rear wasn’t quite as sophisticated – a live axle with torsion bars and a Panhard rod.However, the 507 was prohibitively expensive. It cost almost twice the cost of a Corvette, so the US importer, Max Hoffman, drastically scaled back his importation plans. This limited production to just 252 units between 1956 and 1959, and plunged BMW into a financial black hole that would take years to recover from.Nevertheless, the car did attract notable celebrity owners, such as Elvis Presley and racing legend John Surtees.This particular 507 was first delivered to the Fadex Commercial Group in New York, and was extensively restored in Germany between 2013 and 2015.Presented by: @alangesoehneConcours of Elegance Germany July 25 - 26 10:00 AM - 18:00 PM Gut Kaltenbrunn, TegernseeFriday Highlight: Best of Show Parade Saturday Highlight: Specialist Concours & Decade AwardsImages: Christoph Thurner #COEG#Concoursgermany#ClassicCars#Concours#concoursofelegance#bmw507#automotive#classiccaroftheday
