Limited Production and Series Split
BMW built just 252 units of the 507 between 1956 and 1959. Of those, 34 were the original Series I models and the remaining 218 were produced as Series II.
Ambitious U.S. Export Plans vs Reality
The 507 was initially intended to be exported to the United States at a rate of thousands of cars per year. In reality, total production never exceeded a few hundred, far below the original export target.
Costly Aluminum V8 Engine
Powering the 507 was a small, light V8 that was cast from aluminum and also featured aluminum cylinder heads. The sophisticated, lightweight engine contributed to the model’s high production costs, which ultimately led to its discontinuation.
