Every year many excellent models of cars get sold in car auctions. So this year also the car auctions were great. Some of the cars hit huge sales. The bid for the 1957 BMW 507 hit $1.6 million. This figure will go on increasing. This car caught many people’s eye and was the best looking of all. Many wanted to purchase it and it is incredibly valuable. This is because the BMW wanted to produce more of this model but the project became too expensive to manage.
They stopped producing the models after building 252 cars from 1956 to 1960. This makes the 1957 BMW Roadster rare and unique.
