The BMW 507 is an extremely rare car, of which only 254 units were manufactured. However, Movendi has managed to acquire a pair of these coveted roadsters that are sure to appeal to any discerning BMW collector.
Once owned by the likes of Elvis Presley and John Surtees, the BMW 507 is not only one of the most beautiful cars of the 1950s, but also one of the most coveted and collectible BMWs of all time. With a curvaceous all-aluminum body and a thumping V8 under the hood, the 507’s only real flaw is that only two people can enjoy the driving experience at a time. However, Movendi has solved this problem because it now offers two fantastic examples of these Bavarian beauties designed by Albrecht Graf von Goertz, allowing you and three of your friends to take the road trip of a lifetime.
Let’s examine the above car first, shall we? With only 254 units ever built, the 507 is an extremely rare car, but this 1957 BMW 507 is even rarer, being one of only 34 Series I roadsters. Delivered new in Zurich through Swiss BMW dealer Motag, this 507 It resided in the Swiss city for over 40 years under the care of a single owner. Restored between 2007 and 2009, this magnificent 507 won third prize at Pebble Beach in 2013 before being acquired by BMW Classic in 2016. Its last owner lived in Belgium, where it was registered until recently. Accompanied by its hardtop and with its original interior and Rudge center-lock wheels, this 507 is simply waiting to be driven.
Introducing the stunning 1959 BMW 507 Roadster Series II Silberblau, originally delivered to American general importer Max Hoffman in New York. This exceptional vehicle spent most of its early life near the Big Apple and was first restored in the 1990s, with a color change to black. However, in 2021, it underwent another restoration to regain its original silver-blue hue, beautifully complementing its tan interior. With only 127 miles on the original tachometer, this ultimate driving machine has barely been driven. We think it’s time someone took these two legendary BMWs on a nice long road trip now that they are both in fantastic condition.
