While the M2 CS at Legends of the Autobahn is special in its own right, BMW also did wagon fans a favor by bringing out an M5 Touring. But they didn’t bring any old M5 with them.

About 15 years ago, BMW started catching flak from loyal enthusiasts about the brand slapping its “M” badges on cars that weren’t proper M cars. “‘M’ stands for ‘marketing’ now, not motorsport,” they’d cry.
