In short, it’s not looking good for the 5-Series wagon in the U.S. The release said merely that the 5-Series wagon, which is offered here only as the all-wheel-drive 535xi for $57,700 before options, “will continue through to the end of production in April as a 2010 model.” When asked about the prospects of a replacement based on the new F10 5-series sedan, which will be out in Europe by the end of the year, BMW spokesman Dave Buchko said, “That’s being discussed. As well as they do in Europe and as much as we love them and in spite of our best efforts, our wagons have just never sold very well in the U.S. The business case is hardly a slam-dunk.” We understand (particularly given the aforementioned price and the existence of the 5-series GT), and still we weep.
