I don't think they ever had intentions of releasing it or will in the future.

Oh well.

Wow, that is OLD. About the time the X5 came out, that did. Anyways, I love it.

the only reason it was made is for BMW to see how far they could push a truck chassi. i think it also ran god-like lap times on the nurburgring
