Yellow one doesnt have a carbon roof. It has sunroof.
I dont like sunroof for M cars. It gives you negatif aeorodynamic effect on high speeds.

These flashy, youthful and aggressive colors work on an M2/M3/M4, but definitely not here. Too desperate.

I guess it also doesn't help that the car looks dull as a doorknob.

i prefer bright colors on sports cars and active vehicles... while the M5 can certainly rock these... they wouldnt be my way of showing off how sporty and active I am..

Currently BMW simply doesnt prefer to use bright solid colors like Imola Red, Atacama or Dakar Yellow, or Fire or Sahara Orange.. All the colors are shimmery and named as part of the rainbow they can look like... such as Long Beach Teal, Hockenheim Gray, Valencia Orange..... Sakhir orange.. .Sunset Orange. wow.. three metallic flake oranges.... and how many Metallic flake blues.. ?

Since there aren't any bright color sporty models in the showrooms.. customers will go Individual as much as possible.. kinda of a win win for BMW....

I like the yellow...but I wouldn't buy it. The M5 I like for its wolf in sheep's clothing character. If I want to stand out with colors like that I'd buy something with a much meaner sound, like a Ferrari or McLaren.

The only Speed Yellow F90 in LHD, VIN G965623, does have a sunroof (or moonroof if you prefer to call it that) and carbon ceramic brakes, along with full black wheels which match the picture, so I call it likely to be genuine and not a wrap.

There is one Fire Orange RHD F90, VIN GA02949. Again, what you can see leads me to believe this too is genuine and not a wrap.

Can we gather more of these M5s? This can be the Taxi War of the century.

Really accentuates the CF/two-tone roof. I like both colors in general, just not on an M5.
