I think, numerically speaking, the lowest 5er model number that's ever been sold in the States has been the 524td.

One of my friends has one and there are a few around, but very few. Think they stopped making them a couple of years back. Although not the quickest about they still cruise along comfortably

In the U.S., the 524td was AFAIK an E34.
