Customer stopped by the office and I saw this pull in... Yes a Techno Violet E34 m5. Talked a little bit and realize what this car is.

1993 Euro M5
340HP 3.8L I-6
6sp
Individual Interior - Techno Bolsters instead of Techno Inserts

To the owners knowledge this car is 1 of 1 in the US and maybe 1 of 1 total. Unknown what is floating around in Euro but here in the states this is the E34 M5 to have.

Sorry the pics are not great. Sun was straight overhead and I am back in a busy office/industrial park area so cars are everywhere.

On with the pictures!

Any M-Series Bimmer is a car to be desired by enthusiasts. Lovely shots. Thank you for sharing them.

A rare car indeed. I have seen an 8 series "Individual" that is techno violet and I know the BMW Club magazine had a small article about atechno violet e34 m5 "touring" (wagon) a couple years ago. Cool car!

dude, you have no idea what it's like to be stationed here in Germany and see all these ridiculous JDM/EDM spec cars running around, and it's not a big deal. Mind boggling.

haha, what wheels are you looking for? PM me on September 16th or so. I'm heading to an NCO school for a month on tuesday, but there are 2-3 junk yards full of german spec bmws within a few miles of base. i can check em out and let you know.

edit : and yes, stationed here...in Bavaira, as in Bavarian Motor Werks
