Absolutely cherry. Though, still kinda sad that RWD isn't available.

Looks pretty good and love the front seats but was hoping for them to be skinnier to have some rear legroom which seems to be the same as F10.

Oh man the rear tires cannot get skinnier, they need to be replaced with aftermarket fatter ones.

Not sure what others feel but the red paddles are starting to look very out of place - they look stubby and just not great. Overall interior seems to be quite a step up from the F10.

I cannot comment directly on the wheels aesthetically yet...(Brad knows why.)


For eTis this may help. Yes mere mortals can accesses it.

Thanks everyone. I had seen 295's on the red one and wasn't sure if we were going to get both options or not. Agreed about rear tyre width not being as important now.

If there is room then 325/30r20 will work well with the 275/35r20 fronts but those are really only available in Sport Cup 2, not normal tyres.

The wheels look ok on the blue car but agreed about the gloss black finish being a bad choice.

Im wondering if they are going to offer an Alcantera wrapped steering wheel as an option. Also, a low profile flat bottom wheel would be nice too. The blue is outright sick! Its a perfect shade of blue. Not too dark and not too smurf. I cant stand the Yas Marina blue on the M3/M4. I thought the Estoril blue was good lookin. This Marina Bay Blue trumps it. The MBB would be the color i would get. Now only if they made it in a manual....SMH.

Agree, they hit it out of the park on the color, gorgeous shade of blue.

Now the only question remains, as Chris Harris will ask: But will it drift?

Edit: Anybody else notice the range indicated on next to the fuel gauge? 115kms at a 1/4 tank? Seems rather terrible. ~460km total range = 285 miles. Did we ever get an answer as to the actual size of the gas tank in the new F90 M5? If this accurate at all, the F90 M5 has a shorter range than an E60 M5.

Or am I reading that number wrong? Is it really 775kms?

It's below the 1/4 tank mark if you look closely...and we all know the last 1/4 of a tank is never the same as the 1/4 of a tank so based on that, I think the 115km is pretty decent.

Im very excited about this car. I love my M4, but 3/4 of the time I find myself wanting 2 more doors. This answers all of that. Can't wait!

[avi8tir]

Is it just me or do 20's look really good? I thought 20's looked too small on the F10.... these look really good. Good ride height too!

[advantage20]

Competition Package wheels?

[somer]

Let's hope not

[advantage20]

What else then? Seems consistent with the M3/M4.

[eRiggs5]

I love those wheels!
