Hot damn! Uncle Bumbeck found this beauty in the "Old Timers" section of the Hot Dog Show. And I'm simply drooling. I especially dig how only German ragtops with half a century under their low-belts can pull off the wheels matched to body color look. Here's what the sign said:

1959 BMW 507
8 Zylinder V-Motor
3168 CCM
150 PS
190 km/h
Design Von Graf von Goertz
"BMW Mobile Tradition"

8 Zylinders for zee win, baby! Click through the gallery or we'll smack you.

Gorgeous..nothing less and nothing more to say .
I just can´t belive that such heritage didn´t spawn more after modles..what a pitty..I guess MB wouldn´t have such a big success with it´s SL-series IMO .

The 509 was one of the most successful BMWs coming after the war. If a car company needs to show its heritage its this. i think the 328 and the 509 are the best there ever was...

When there is a Bimmer in the room, the MBs are always in the background

The red wheels work on it somehow.
