Marina Bay Blue M5 - Took Delivery Today

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Picked up my new F90 M5 in Marina Bay Blue today.. Absolutely loving it. Just traded in my F80 M3 ZCP.

Thus far, really impressed with the get-up-and-go and very much impressed with the overall aesthetic of the car. Only minor gripe is that it feels a bit disconnected from the road (too high); hoping that they come out with the Height Adjustable Spring kits to get it a little lower to the ground. Otherwise, I'm in love..

Congratulations! I am ordering the same Marina Blue. Question - I am debating black wheels versus the half and half. I like both - not sure about blue with black. Did you consider them?

vtknight - I did consider both; I would have gone with the black wheels had I not seen the bi-color in-person. I felt that the bi-color wheels really complimented the car (more than is evident in photos).

Definitely go check it out in person, if you have the chance (which I know is tough given the limited supply).

Thank-you for the response. The chrome/metal part of the wheels do highlight some of the same materials on the car -door handles, front grill etc. I will definitely check it out in real life. Enjoy the car and congrats again!

I debated same. I went with bi-color for the same reason and I'm glad I did. Recently had the chance to see these wheels in person and pictures don't do them justice. I also think the black wheel thing has run its course.

Congrats to OP.
