Not typically a red fan, but the M5 LCI looks awesome in Imola Red. Perhaps the stage lighting makes it look a bit pink though. In more neutral lighting should still look great.

Looks great but the headlights feel a little VW to me at least in terms of the drls...Bmw had it made w the halos and now is all over the place.

F10s are atrocious performance and looks wise. Who would pick a F10 over a F90 LCI or pre LCI?

I personally love the F10 platform and exterior with the DCT. The interior, performance etc are obviously significantly improved on the F90 but I do like the F10.
Just IMO:

1. E39
2. F10
2b.F90

I'm converting - always been a M3 guy (although the E39M did tempt me). Now given the awful G80 front grill this beautiful M5 is wayyyyyyy more interesting as my next daily driver.

Same here. I just ordered an M5 because I cannot do the new M3. Sorry, I just can't drive around in such an ugly car.
