Looks slick. Didn't know you can get body colour rear bumper ( around the diffuser). It was that painted by you?

Non Compétition models come with the lower rear bumper part painted in body color.

Right, thanks! We Aussies only get the Comp so have never seen a pure M5 in flesh.

All good man

When I bought mine, the compétition wasn't available yet.

Looks good. TBH, I prefer the body colour lower bumper over the gloss black and it highlights the diffuser a bit more. The gloss black in flesh also looks a bit cheapish.

Fun fact : many owners of "base M5" prefer the gloss black part (I'm not one of them) and M5C owners prefer the opposite

Hahaha. Grass is always greener on the other side! I would have 1 of each if I could

Just get a Black Sapphire Comp. Problem solved.

@BarryB what kind of green was the M5C, it looks lighter than BRG, Irish Green maybe? Really want to know because it looks so good. Your CS looks gorgeous btw.

I thought it was brg….. I will ask him next time I see him. Stay tuned. He said something about there only being 2 of them somewhere…..so it could be different (also, remember, iPhone pic…..)

BarryB thank you, I am trying to choose the perfect green for my build so I get particularly interested whenever I see a green one. The Individual Visualizer doesn't do justice when M5 is selected like it does with the M3s and M4s so a real life picture really helps

zb, you have a good eye…..it is goodwood metallic green. I had never heard of it but definitely like it too ……like most, it looks even better in person.

Haha thank you, I have kept staring at different shades of greens for way too long at this point lol. A local dealer in southern California had one Goodwood Green M5C in transit 2 months ago. So if this is not that car, he is right that there is only one other than his to my knowledge. Hadn't seen real life photos of it. Looks amazing. Thank you for sharing

This is stock factory color. This isn't the competition package. Base model M5's don't have a gloss black rear bumper unless painted

UglyBuzzard · 02-10-2022, 08:10 PM

Just back from tinting . Next black kidney grill, color match M5 side strips, and black chrome tips… a little paint correction and then ceramic coated.
