You’ve seen the BMW M5 Touring...but have you seen its pickup sibling?

Who knows, maybe one day we’ll see BMW actually build something like this

Suffice to say BMW made a lot of people happy (or maybe that’s just my biased, wagon-loving self talking) when it finally released the M5 Touring. A ‘practical’ and spacious family car on weekends that doubles as a track toy on weekends—what more can we ask for?

Well, in the case of X-Tomi Design, a truck. An M5 truck was actually something we could have asked for. Regardless of whether or not anyone did, though, X-Tomi Design went ahead and rendered one, anyway. Man, if only the never-made-it-into-production E30 M3 pickup could see this.

Why, you might ask? Why the heck not, we say. X-Tomi Design’s come up with an XM pickup in the past, so this isn’t exactly a shocker. Besides, hear us out: This actually looks darn good. It’s a slammed, sexy-looking pickup on which BMW’s signature kidney grille surprisingly appears to be a good fit.

Imagine this two-door, two-seater pickup pushing 717hp and 1,000Nm of torque from its hybrid 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 powertrain. With a rear-wheel-drive layout, this might easily be the world’s wildest drift truck yet. It’ll probably ride like a nightmare even on properly paved highways, but what the heck.
