2021 Marina Bay Blue Metallic M5C Pickup tomorrow...
After being without an M5 or M3 for four years I decided to jump back in and order a 2021 M5C. She came in at the dealer on Friday and is being worked on getting some additional parts installed that weren't available for port install. Here are a couple picks I snapped at the dealer as it was getting prepped on Friday.
Optional parts that I had installed so far are: - CF Mirror Caps (Port install) - CF Rear Diffusor (Port install) - Rear Spoiler Carbon Pro (Port install) - Carbon Fiber Extended Engine Cover (Port install) - Carbon Fiber Side Grilles (Port install) - Carbon Fiber Side Skirts (Dealer install) - Steering Wheel Pro (Dealer install) - M Performance Exhaust (Port install) - M Performance Forged Wheels (Dealer install) These are the parts I am still waiting on from Germany: - Carbon Fiber Engine Cover - M Performance Adjustable Sport Suspension Kit I'll post more pictures once it's ready tomorrow and I pick her up. BTW, for those people that have been asking on here about X5M vs M5 I can tell you that an X5M is not the same. I do have a 2016 X5M (with RaceChip Pro) and my wife has a 2018 M550i and after driving her car some this summer I realized that I really missed driving a performance car. I had traded in my 2006 M5 and 2016 M3 in on the X5M so I haven't driven a car much for a few years. I've mostly been driving the X5M and my truck (Ford F350)...I really missed driving a fast car. Again, more to come in the next day or so. |

I wonder where "in port" do they do all these modifications. Interesting why they just don't let the dealer do it all.

Is that the new steering wheel? Looks the same as one that came in mine, if not installed yet what does the Pro wheel look like?
P.S. Love all the additions, though round my way they be all stolen in a heart beat. LOL |

No. That’s the steering wheel that comes on it. New steering wheel wasn’t installed yet.

The exhaust itself isn't muted. The ECU changes how the car produces sound. Plus haven't heard this is happening in the US yet.
