For an M5 standard or comp the colour needs to be sporty.
Can't wait for my Donnington M5 comp to arrive mid December.
I must be a Hairdresser then or a poof.
Everyone here who has seen my car in person liked it!!!! we must all be that way .

I love ymb!! Had it on my m3 and was very sad to see it go. Have mbb now, and while it is nice, I don't like it as much as ymb.

Why didn't bmw UK put ccb on any other colour on launch cars. They knew they had to dangle a carrot for people to buy as a used car.

With current offers and dealer connections got a new M5 comp with premium and comfort pack and Dark Carbon interior trim for 80k. Arrives December.
Well you got that wrong there were onlu 4 in Snapper Rock out of 65+ M5's the rest White/grey/black/MBblue.
All have dropped in price so colour specific not a problem.
I payed what you are expecting to pay.

If there were just 4 in SRB of the UK demos, the market clearly doesn’t favour them as there are still 2 for sale. They are also broadly the cheapest and highest spec’ed of the initial demo cars.

I personally think the M5 suits less “look at me” colours, but appreciate that some poeple may see that as boring.

I don't think the M5 looks bad in any color.

17 x First Dealer Cars had CCB's, all 15 x SRB, and 2 x Azurite / SSII.


SRB is the 7th most popular colour in terms of total UK F90's built so far...

Unfortunately not, otherwise I'm sure I'd have got a better discount on my car

I started gathering data from various sources on F10 M5's I was looking at, so I could compare them against my "ideal" build. Over time, I made acquaintances and gained access to other data which meant I was able to expand this to cover all F10 M5's that were built (19,535). This logically expanded to cover the F90 (10,850+).

It's no use just having the information and doing nothing with it, so I therefore try and share it in meaningful ways, so I can give something back to the community.
