Not sure what I did to you but first time I'm getting this type of comment... Ok so I prefer blue over grey.. big deal ?!?!

So for the story, yes I'm a little annoyed that the price of the M5 increased by 18% over the last generation and I don't think i'm the only person in this forum

The new price (not confirmed yet for Spain) might stretch my finance but I'll see when I get the quote from the leasing company... So far the quote they provided me for the E63s/RS6 are decent so M5 should also be ok...

So thank you for the advise on MBworld, but I'm fine here.. see ya

Is it just me, or does the front bumper and grill have an X(insert number) look to it? I thought I read one time that the X vehicles have an X shape in the grill, and it appears this does too. Would make sense given the awd system.

This color looks great! Great !

BwoodBMW · 09-21-2017, 01:18 AM

Wow... looks a lot better in this color to me. Still wish rims were all silver

.BMW. · 09-21-2017, 01:45 AM

Looks great!

domino_z · 09-21-2017, 04:24 AM

that front bumper looks like an alibaba M2 rep

AG23 · 09-21-2017, 06:46 AM

Love it, perfect shade of grey, hopefully standard for next m3/4.

Yup- That's the X5M front bumper...

GOLFFRR · 09-21-2017, 07:56 AM

This is what bothers me. Now all the cars are looking alike, even the M cars. An M5 shouldn't share an X5M bumper.

Looks better on the X5 anyway.

Donni Grey looks great on this car!

This may only be my opinion but doesn?t the trunk spoiler look a little weak and irrelevant compared to the outgoing M5? I even noticed this on the new M550.....I believe it?s the same one. It?s gotten much smaller than the more aggressive larger CF one they had previously. Almost looks like an afterthought or unnecessary versus really being designed into the car. Obviously you?ll have the aftermarket options but thought this would?ve been a good option for them to have.
Just my two cents

Seems to have an E39-level of sleeper. I like that. I want it to be fast- not look fast.

I'm sure the M performance parts catalogue will have plenty of stickers and wings for those that want the maximum effect at cars and coffee.

JMD · 09-21-2017, 09:27 AM

Donington Gray may very well turn out to be the F90's "signature color",...as it goes well with the model's lines,...shadows and highlights!

RPiM5 · 09-21-2017, 10:04 AM

I prefer Rhodonite Silver but Donnington looks good.

someguywithanm3 · 09-21-2017, 10:24 AM

Woo hoo no ugly hood line!

Agreed, it's a beautiful color.

I agree the rims look horrible but the overall car

darkrabbit · 09-21-2017, 12:12 PM

I don't think anyone likes the wheels. Truly ugly.

Now the M550i wheels I can get behind.
