E60 - 5-series sedan
E61 - 5 series touring

E63 - 6 series coupe
E64 - 6 series cabriolet/convertible

E65 is another matter...

But, what happend to the E62? BMW doesn't just skip model codes, I presume, so there must have been some kind of project...? Or?

They don't need to produce other cars to complete the list of the numbers
Otherwise they should have dozens of car in production, between the E46 and the E90

I'm talking about projects - it will take a while until they materialised as cars...

Yeah it's strange since:
E90 - Sedan
E91 - Touring
E92 - Coup?
E93 - Coup?/Cabriolet

Good point!

Maybe they were already thinking of the RaumFunktionellesKonzept at that early stage...?

The 5 saloon, the 5 touring, the 6 coup?, the 6 cabrio ... Never heard of anything else .
What do you want, a 5 series with 8 wheels ?
I can't imagine another E6x
