In a scene straight out of a car lover’s dream (or perhaps a horror movie), an iconic BMW M5 was recently discovered in an abandoned house. Content centered around exploring deserted buildings has long captivated audiences, appealing to our collective sense of adventure and intrigue. This global fascination cuts across borders, with viewers eager for stories about forgotten relics, especially when luxury cars are involved.

But this wasn’t just any abandoned vehicle—it was an E34 M5, a high-performance sports sedan rumored to be worth more than $1.5 million. Let’s explore the mystery of how this BMW ended up forgotten in a crumbling garage.

The Discovery: A YouTuber’s Treasure Find

Two YouTube channels, BigBankz and Silent Hills Explorations, found the BMW. The latter’s creators document urban exploration and hidden treasures in neglected places. The car, which sported a black exterior with ivory leather seats, had a German front license plate and a U.S. Georgia plate on the rear.

Though the YouTubers didn’t uncover any concrete details about the car’s origins, they speculated that the property once belonged to a doctor passionate about collecting vintage cars and die-cast models. Based on their observations, the BMW M5 was likely abandoned sometime around 2008—meaning it had been sitting untouched for nearly 16 years.

What Makes the E34 M5 So Special?

The vehicle discovered was an E34 M5, a model that BMW produced between 1988 and 1995. At its peak, the M5 was the top dog in the high-performance sports sedan market, and it remains a fan favorite to this day. For U.S. customers, the E34 M5 was available from 1991 to 1993, packing BMW’s renowned 3.5L inline-six engine, nicknamed the “Silky Six” for its smooth power delivery. This engine produced an impressive 310 horsepower.

Though a higher-performance variant with a 3.8L engine and 340 horsepower was also produced as a touring version, those models never made it to the U.S. due to emissions regulations. It’s unclear exactly which version of the M5 was found in this case, but given its rarity and pedigree, it has certainly captured the attention of car enthusiasts everywhere.

Current Market Value: A Vintage Bargain

These days, a 1993 BMW E34 M5 in good condition can fetch around $54,000 on the used market. While prices for vintage cars vary widely depending on factors like condition and mileage, owning a piece of BMW history for around $50,000 seems like a steal for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
