BMW 503

The BMW 503 is a two door 2+2 grand touring automobile from the 1950s. BMW developed the 503 alongside their 507 roadster in an attempt to sell a significant number of luxury cars in the United States. The 503 and 507 cost about twice their projected price and did not recover their costs. During production from May 1956 to March 1959, 413 units of the 503 were built. Even though it was a top and prestige model it resulted in heavy losses for BMW.
==Concept and design==

Hanns Grewenig, sales manager of BMW, repeatedly requested the development of a sports car based on their 501 and 502 luxury sedans.〔Norbye, p. 95〕 In early 1954, influenced by the public reaction to Mercedes-Benz 300SL and 190SL show cars in New York in February 1954, the management of BMW approved the project.〔Norbye, pp. 95-96〕
Max Hoffman, an influential automobile importer in the United States, saw early design sketches by BMW's Ernst Loof, and suggested to industrial designer Albrecht von Goertz that he should submit design proposals to BMW.〔Norbye, pp. 113-114〕〔Buckley, Martin, ''BMW Cars'', p. 40〕 Based on these proposals, BMW contracted Goertz to design the 503 and 507 in November 1954.〔Norbye, pp. 114-115〕
The 503 was a 2+2 grand tourer that was available as either a coupe or a convertible. It was noted for having a cleaner and more modern design than the "Baroque Angel" 501-based sedans.〔Noakes, Andrew, ''The Ultimate History of BMW'', pp. 49-50〕 The convertible version of the 503 was the first European convertible with an electrically operated top.〔
