F90 M5 1/43 or 1/18 scale models?

Checking to see if anyone has info on the 1/43 or 1/18 M5 models mentioned by BMW insider Scott earlier this year?

https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...&postcount=179

Colors? Release dates? Producer(s)?

It was disappointing that the f10 skipped the 1/43 scale. I always like a little motivation on my desk...

I'm also interested in this. Do they ever let you pick your colors/options for the scale models? If I bought one, I'd want it to be the same wheels and exterior color that my car has.

My 1/18 in the background
If I do not have it in real, at least in 1/18
I'll make better pictures of it soon.
Engine and Interior are very detailed. I can only recommend the model from Norev.

Unfortunately Norvel only makes the F90 M5 model in the dark marina bay blue color.. I found a solution to make it look more like my personal car.. since I have Snapper Rocks blue I found some vinyl wrap that was very close to the color and wrapped the model.Name:  41FDE7E4-609A-4424-B544-0133FE004C90.jpeg

Looks like Minichamps will release a 1/87 scale F90 in April. These are small and tend to retail for $20.

The model will release in black, blue and white.

Still hoping for 1/43 in donnington...

One came with my M5.

Included two M pens. A notebook. An M tote bag, two carbon fiber M key chains, and an M Mouse Pad.

The Model is Silver though, I may get it painted. (JK).
But it does have the correct wheels and the sunroof.

Thanks - didn't realize you had an F10 M5.

Thought you scored an F90.

And in the correct color, that is Black Sapphire Metallic with full leather and real roof, I.E. Sunroof, and the Bowers and Wilkins stereo.

They have a blue option now but I haven't seen black yet....1/87 (way smaller than your model) should release in April in black...

I know this is an old thread but I have been looking for the 1/18 F90 MBB Norev M5 for almost two years now since I bought my car. I had bought two on eBay over the years and both were canceled because they didn't end up having it.

No dealer has had it for years either (80-43-2-454-783).

I found one on the display for the door projectors at the Park Avenue BMW service center and tried to buy it but they would not sell it to me.

There is one on eBay now for $500 and I offered $200 and it was turned down. I had no plans on spending anywhere near $500 for it.

Suddenly there are a bunch on eBay from China so I just ordered one. I offered $139 and it was accepted and I received notice that it shipped about an hour later.

Now I have to figure out how to take it apart to make the interior Tartufo...
