This is making me rethink my Aragon brown. UGHHHH

[snowbimmer]

Dammit……..Tartufo is really where it's at.

I just do black. Then black again. Then, oh yeah, black. What a nitwit.

[chicagofan00]

Gorgeous build. Congrats!

[mattssi]

Nice mayne!

Thanks, man! Like everyone else has said, beautiful M. Very tasteful. Pics made me more excited to take delivery of my Tartufo equipped M5 that should enter production any week now! Enjoy it!

[Megatr0n]

Clean! Very nice color, it fits the F90!

[SidJr]

This has to be the best color for the M5.

Amazing specs and nice ride enjoy it.

[papertiger]

Epic car, epic build. This is OEM+ all the way. Beautiful color combo!

Thank you! I'm very much so a traditionalist when it comes to my cars, clothes, watches, etc. I don't like "LOOK AT ME" instead I prefer those who are avid collectors and enthusiasts to appreciate the attention to subtly and details. BMW M was never what, unfortunately, the brand has decided it should be now.

My jaw hit the floor when I saw the new parts available to the G8X M3/4. I knew it before, but that moment solidified why the F90 had to be mine. For all we know, It could be the final iconic version of what M Division has always been. Hopefully one of us has connections or the skillset needed to be the next CEO of M, and fire everyone who's shredded this brands heritage. I love bmw, and M, dont get me wrong....I just see this new M line up as far more extreme than what it used to be, what I fell in love with.

OEM+ TILL THE END!

Thank you! I have worn comments like this with such honor and pride the last couple of days. I remembered always commenting on the "big dogs" here and how I wanted to do anything to be that.

I also try and relate to as many of the members, the headaches, frustrations, highs, all of it, as much as I can. We all share this in common, right?!

Yea that photo had me stuck starring at the screen for a bit too. Then the new rollers came in and needless to say- I found a favorite lol

Im partial to a mesh design-type wheel. Who knows, maybe one day i'll explore a nice set. I do, however, think of my #1 most listened to artist, Jigga man, and hear the line "I'm young enough to know the right car to buy
Yet grown enough not to put rims on it" from 30-something lol

This is how I feel about the pops'n bangs I hear from most "modern" cars. It's all very digital, very predictable.

I have an '02 ZO6 Corvette which is nothing too special these days, but man does it sound good. Stock titanium mufflers with full headers/x-pipe, it screams. One of the coolest things about the sound is the odd gunshot it lets out on a big downshift. They come so randomly and so infrequently that when you do get one it makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up.

I find few things as cheesy as a new car that consistently crackles and pops as the driver negotiates a crowded mall parking lot. Really?

Anyways, rant off. Your car looks incredible, I'm sure it drives every bit as well as you claim, and it's so nice to see someone who has worked hard and earned their stuff. Bravo, and congratulations!

Happy to hear you have an '02 Z06. A true naturally aspirated monster, way before it's time. The Z06 has always impressed me and pissed me off lol. I love how menacing it looks. I hate how god damn fast they are and how much cheaper they are than every other car in its tier lol.

The downshift blip must be something that leaves you speechless, I'm sure.

I've crossed a "bucket list" goal of mine when I got this car. I always wanted a German V8 with exhaust. I had a buddy with an '04 Audi S4. Nagaro Blue with Nagaro blue alcantara seats, 6 spd, and custom titanium exhaust. I'll never forget the day we all heard it- EVERYONE wanted to ride with him lol.

I'll admit, I wish this car had a DCT transmission so I could hear those downshifts with this motor.

In all seriousness, it's effortless. The leather is soft, I find. So some interior paste/conditioner to preserve the quality over the years is a must. So far, 6 months (ish) and shy of 5k miles, I have not had to clean denim discoloration off the seats.

My E92 335is was Black Sapphire on Oyster. I was scrubbing VISIBLE staining from pants off the driver seat every couple of months.

Only nerve racking detail of the interior is the Piano Black trim. Yes, its gorgeous, yes its (in my opinion) the most fitting of all the choices for the M5, but if you sneeze, talk on the phone, change the temperature, change the station, and god forbid use the touchscreen, get ready for OCD overload. EVERYTHING shows up.

Aragon is great. My second pic for the interior was Midrange beige. I LOVE MRB. It's so unique and classy.

Tartufo, just like my exterior (fashion grey) was a stab in the dark. I never saw it in person, or sat in it. I LOVED it in photos. Significantly darker in person. I use "CINNAMON" as the best comparison for color. It is a crowd pleaser for sure. The white stitching is so perfect for the necessary contrast.

Nothing wrong with BLK merino! I had extended leather on my F82 M4. Always looked good. My only issue with black interior= shows it's age the most.

Thank you! Congrats on your build! Trust me, the wait IS SO worth it. And the extra expense for this interior option is WELL worth it. You will NOT be disappointed.

Now you know you can't just say you're getting tartufo without hinting to the exterior color!!! Whats the build look like! Let's hear it!

Thank you! I'll never forget it- my SA sent me a picture of the car coming off the truck and I almost vommited. I HATED the pic. I was like "OMFG IT'S YELLOW"

I get just as much, if not more compliments than I did with YMB on the M4. It's unique enough to be in a class of it's own amongst the new found fade of "grey" on all cars. But subtle enough to not seem as though you're wearing a clown suit in traffic.

Thank you! Never saw it in person prior to ordering. I found 1 other M5 on here that was from 2019 (Pre LCI) and than a month before mine arrived, another Bimmerpost member in NJ posted pictures of his. Lawguy was the one who called it though, best damn color there is! "get ready for loads of attention" as I recall!

For those of you in the South Florida area,

I'll be attending a Sunday morning Cruise/Rally from BB&T Center in Sunrise, FL down to Key Biscayne, FL (which is a great drive, and gorgeous place if you haven't been- some epic lunch spots too) on SUNDAY OCTOBER 3, 2021. I was the 41st car to join the rally, so there is a great turn out of cars.

This will be my first public event with the F90.

Would love to meet a lot of the folks on here. Should be a solid morning/afternoon! Shout out to The_Werm for sending me the info!

[Tallest]

Well great, now everyone modding their G30 or M5s know that their efforts will be wasted as theirs will never be as good as yours. Well done.

[CarMan77]

Great write up, with fantastic photos! Fashion grey is stunning. Well done.

[EnVe46]

Beautiful build! Awesome to see Jon and EuroWerks getting love! One of the best shops period

[2011ninja]

Stunning!!!!!!

[rockyfeller]

What an excellent write up! Obviously you're very meticulous and I love every rich detail you mentioned. Pics are out of this world. Just intoxicating for passionate enthusiasts like us! A high quality post like yours has us hooked for more updates. Keep them coming!

You have great taste, the car is gorgeous! I know you'll savor every second of the experience. Good luck and be safe.

[TractionControlDelete]

Great photos. And for the first time ever, I like the write up even more than the pics. Awesome stuff!

I've always liked S4s. IMO they were the best looking car in Audi's lineup until the S5 came along. Both clean, nearly timeless designs. A friend of mine has a '13 S4 with some work done to it, a very nice package for sure.

I bought the Z in '04, and back then it was a big deal. Cars have gotten a lot faster since then, no doubt, but that dinosaur with three pedals and a high-strung small block plasters a smile on my face every time I drive it. That's the whole point, right?

I'm sure your M5C gives you the same joy - RIGHT ON MAN! Great thread you have going here, incredible car, great story - two thumbs all the way up!

[Kevin_The_Clean1]

FSHNGRY Super sick ride man. Now I definitely want an M5 even more than I already did. And then engine is a work of art!

Now you know you can't just say you're getting tartufo without hinting to the exterior color!!! Whats the build look like! Let's hear it!

Ok, you got me! My build is an M5C, Snapper Rocks Blue over Tartufo. B&W, Exec, CCBs and of course M Driver's package. My last 8 cars or so have all been black, white or some form of grey so it was time for something a little different. Blue is actually my favorite color and I think it'll look great on the M5. I wanted something light enough to show the badges, they look invisible on Tanzanite, black, etc.

Have you considered the 863m wheels if you were going to add some wheels to your build? I think the titanium color would look great on your car. It would give it a custom yet OEM look. I'm going to go for them eventually I think.

[jsf721]

Not only do you seem like such a nice guy, the car is stunning and you get to drive it year round in Florida. Very well done and thought out build. Just amazing.

Enjoy it in the best of health !

I’m just lurking over here (I drive a 540x M sport.)

I’m humbled and super thankful that you say that! I also turn and look at the floor when I think of some of the heavy hitters in here who have not only inspired me to want to be able to do the same, but who have in my opinion, gone way beyond my build! I appreciate it!

Jon was at the start of all of this- I went to Remove my springs from my 330iZHP when he was just a tech at BMW. He came out and goes “let me adjust the camber for you” I shrugged my shoulders and said “ok?”

I think learned what “stance” was. That very day. He’s worked on every one of my cars. He’s my first phone call when I’m a week or so away from a delivery and parts are piling up, I’m making sure he can schedule me in ASAP. LOVE the team at EUROWERKS, I’ll be going to them for the foreseeable future!

What a perfectly worded response! Truly, Thank you!!

I start an “update” like this to post months before. I’ll notice something, or get an idea for a mod in my brain, and I’ll just jot details in my iPhone/iPad notepad. I value you’re attention to what time and effort I put in to properly showcase my F90, and grab everyone’s attention!

I’m die hard for M cars and Bimmerpost. I have been since I joined in 2009, and I plan on staying and keeping up with more mods, and future M cars (as long as they aren’t fully electric) for years to come.

Cars will always be faster, newer, more buttons. They all age and become dinosaurs to some, but the drivers experience, memories, garage hours build a bond many of us can’t break.

I smile every time I fire up the V8 first thing in the morning. I smile during highway pulls. Truly a great connection I have going with the F90.

Thank you! I imagine I’ll be getting the stock engine bits i removed to put the Gloss black ones on sent in to have them painted in ALL Fashion grey with black lettering and accents. The Eventuri cones in Carbon Fiber are drool worthy

Oooooohhhhhhhhh!! I look forward to seeing your build when it arrives featured on the mainpage! SnapperRocks is a BEAUTIFUL color. Not for some, but Tartufo will be a very VERY nice touch there. Happy to hear your 2022 wasn’t effected by the B&W removal.

I will have you know that your mention of the 863M wheels, had me already chatting with Cat @IND getting some pictures. You owe me half of what these wheels cost just for putting this idea in my head! Lol

Thank you brother! People with nice cars who are rude or arrogant always disappointed me. When I was much younger I always said I would be cool as F with all enthusiasts. I was a college guy with a 330iZHP and I would stare at pictures of E46 M3’s, E39 and E60 M5’s and get so frustrated by how long it would seemingly be before my time would come one day. Blessed is an understatement. Enjoy the 540x M! Drive safe
