I'd go and have a look at the way it mounts mate, iirc the pans at the back end are pretty similar, after all I've just fitted a replacement 540iT exhaust to my 540i Saloon - I think it's just an inch or two different somewhere!

I have a DA'Lan from a touring I could lay up against my sedan, but you'll find out in short order, I'm sure. Either will require drilling at least holes in the floor/spare-tire well, and the bumper. DA'Lan shows the same hitch for sedans and touring excluding the M5. Shown here (http://www.etrailer.com/pc-H~217211.htm?vehicleid=19957665) for $159 new with free shipping.
