FINALLY… Picked up my Nardo Grey M5 Comp Today

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

After nearly 4 months of build time and then having to wait an additional 2 weeks after it came in because I tested positive for COVID, I was finally able to pick up my 2021 Nard Grey M5 Competition.

Went fully loaded except for the CCBs. I think the black calipers look sick with the black rims. Also, went back forth on adding the Pro Spoiler but after seeing Batman051080’s pics and going with his recommendation, I added it and happy I did.
I just received IND front painted reflectors and will have my detail guy install them when it goes in for ceramic coating this week.

Drove it 60 miles home today and all I can say is this car is amazing! I cannot wait to open it up after the break in period. Only complaint is that it came with Perelli’s, so first order of business in spring is to get Michelins

Pumped to be a part of the M5 community here and a quick thank you to all of you on this forum for your insight and all the information that everyone provides. Cheers!

Very happy for you! I was stuck on Nardo Grey but opted for Brands Hatch Grey and snuck in the M Performance Exhaust (wife doesn’t know). Can’t wait to get mine next year.

Congrats on the build!
The MPE sounds sick, good choice. May be the one thing I regret not adding to my build.
Post pics and video of the exhaust when you pick it up.

She’s beautiful. I agree, the black calipers look very good...understated, yet aggressive at the same time. Excellent plate too! Enjoy!

Great color!!! pro spoiler looks perfect! Nice

Nice build and good to see another Tri State F90’er.

I also went w/ the black wheels and calipers on my LCI.

Manhasset (Nassau County). It’s funny, before I got mine I didn’t see any and now in a block radius there are two M5C’s and a M8C. Really gained popularity now.

Of course right after I said I never see them, went out for a coffee this morning and saw a Hatch Grey M5.
I think you're right. I'm glad to see some others. Everyone around me owns hellcats.

LCI + Nardo look amazing together!! Congrats

Makes me want to go get an LCI

Batman051080 · 12-20-2020, 08:58 PM

Glad to hear that you finally received yours. Your interior looks absolutely SICK! Makes me think twice about my Aragon brown choice. Looks beautiful and great taste! Congratulations TrecNY.

I am going to keep it stock for the first few months, but I'm coming from a 700+ hp tuned X5M so I'm sure by spring I'll be looking into tuning options on the M5
