Was thinking the exact same. Although time has softened my dislike of the beaver teeth this example on a beautiful car clearly showcases how nice and special this car can look. Wheels are perfect- very complimentary!

And what a beautiful car. But don't worry, BMW will find a way to screw it up. |

Very nice, the Malachite has a little too much brown in person for me though. Glad to see no black wheels as I do think I prefer something other than black wheels with the greens, the black takes away from the color, and I like to see the wheel design pick up the metallics in the green. The black just mutes the color, no thanks.

I had wondered this to so busted out some sleuthing — Bavarian BMW in Belfast. Even when I looked a few weeks ago it seems like it was already sold. Wanted to see if they had more pics.
Someone get the owner on these forums!

That’s the best M5 I’ve ever seen. Absolutely gorgeous. Gold CCB’s would complete it. I also agree on the black wheels, they would not work well on that colour combo.

design, quality, dynamics, SOUND my f90 mops the floor with any m3's sound.. even an e90 But I'm going to say something nobody else seems to say: I like the g80 front, always have, especially with the vorsteiner or gt4 grill.. super sick.. BUT i really dislike the rear, I dislike the rear quarter panels, dislike the tail lights, and the fact Acura has unfortunately copied them identically.. so at dusk and after, it's indistinguishable from an Acura .. that sucks butt the 3 stacked center exhaust is also a miss And who cares if a tuned g80 outruns a tuned f90 ... stock for stock thats not happening tuning was fun for a few years, but unless you're going to do a complete real motor out build, and get real power and 1/4 mile numbers under nine seconds, who cares?! A tesla SUV beats us all in a line But an f90 comp with the right specs, mods, and wheels is untouchable |

really hides the brakes, but above all else it could be a challenge on a game show to identify your wheel compared to a black hub on a '93 crown Victoria patrol from 50 yards away Black wheels signify one thing: this person has no personal style or preferences for themselves. people are driving around with black rims because manufacturers have started putting them on new cars and people want to just be trendy and signal that they're in a new car regardless of how sugly it is, if it's new, those people jump on that ship. any guy that gets a new car and opts for not black wheels I think to myself: this guy has a mind of his own like me. it's a fact |

I’m sure we can both agree that BMWs are legions better looking than any Tesla. In my opinion, and obviously many many many others (sales numbers prove this) the G80 is one of the best looking BMWs that manufacture has ever designed. Front, middle and rear. The thing just looks mean. Most of the controversy has been around the front grille because for whatever reason long-term BMW enthusiasts want every freaking car in BMWs fleet to look the same from the front. Holy crap that’s boring IMO. After all it was the G80’s front that brought me to BMW to begin with. For whatever reason the S58 just has way more post stock tune power it can give than the S63. I have no idea why. I’ve tried to watch YouTube videos explaining it to me, but I just can’t get my head around it. You can just get more horsepower out of that S58 V6 engine, then the S68 V8. Now any V8 sounds legions better than any V6. Hell even my Porsche sounds like crap compared to my M5. Lol. So you’ll get no arguments from me there. Whether your opinion on an inevitable engine rebuild for highly tuned G80’s is accurate have no idea. But I do know that you can safely tune a G80 and it will beat a safely tuned F90 0-60 (I’ve seen it) and what I mean by safely tuned is it will have no long-term effects on engine performance or wear. Don’t think that makes me happy because it doesn’t. After all I paid more money from my F90 then the G80. I’m just telling you what I’ve read and seen. |
