Sorry no good pics but I am thrilled with my gold calipers. So glad I chose this option. I'm impressed with how different the feel of the CS is. Feels extremely nimble for a large car……
Time to go drive. Never noticed the inside of the hood before…..

Looks stunning. Love the gold calipers. How does the matte green look in direct sunlight? Many colors lose their appeal under the bright light of day. Congrats and enjoy!

Thx it actually looks best in direct sun in my opinion. You can see the driveway pic. (Again bad pic) I took a couple inside a garage today and it looked good too :-)

Hi Barry,

Congratulations, and please write a detailed review of the M5 CS after you put some miles on her. You have owned many M5's and I can't wait to hear your feedback.

Barry,
Car looks great! Let us know what you think of the exhaust sound. I’m thinking I may have to do this mod on my incoming CS.....
Such a shame no Euro delivery option!

Yes, shame on no Euro delivery. Done it twice and would love to do it again…….
Exhaust definitely is fair. I don't want a "look at me" exhaust, but think it could be a bit more aggressive as with M5C… not expecting too much more as it breaks in but would rather be too quiet than too loud.

I'm just over 2,000 miles and my exhaust has gotten a small bit louder, but it is still underwhelming.

did you do Ceramic over the ppf? Im learning about these things now, as they have never interested me in the past..


I understand the ceramic over the ppf would serve as basically just making washing easier, more hyrdophobic etc.. Which i dont care about. I just dont want chips (which i know the PPF will protect)
