Excellent discussion. I would add to David's comments that e30 prices are indeed on the rise, in part due to the racing heritage of the car. It was promoted by BMW and other private racing teams in Europe and went head to head with the 2.3-16V model of the Mercedes-Benz W201 190E.
While there were fewer e28 M5's produced, both in Europe and NA when compared to the M3, the NA spec e28 M5 does not comand the same prices as the e30 M3 (with the exception of a handful of pristine low km examples). The majority of M5's going for less than 10k require extensive restoration/mechanical refresh due to, for example neglect and the fact they were/are drivers.
However, euro spec e28 M5's is another story altogether:
