That article just came out, thanks for sending I would of missed it. So that clears up some answers about why they didn't make the E39 M5T. Nice to finally see a couple more pictures of it.

"...the story goes that BMW wanted to build the E39 M5 Wagon but some issue with the rear axle misbehaving led them to decide that the car just wouldn't be up to M Division snuff. And the plug was pulled.

ESS Supercharger, what a wonderful idea? Maybe for Xmas! Yes the headliner is suede and the rear headrests are from a M5, rear seats have the correct M5 inserts, I didn't get a good pic of that maybe next time.
