Violet blue II // LCI M5C

MTHX · 09-24-2021, 01:54 PM

I had an M5 base 2018 donington grey before. So I'm kind of on familiar ground.

It wasn't the spec I ordered (I ordered the ceramic brakes, but they got it wrong when I ordered it) so I got the normal brakes. I'm a little disappointed, but I didn't want to wait another 8 months to get another one.

I wanted to have a sportier look than the previous one, so here is my new toy,

Cosmetic / sport modification
Violet Blue II
Black/Midrand Beige Two-Tone Full Merino Leather
MSS Suspension
Carbon Fiber exterior
Carbon Fiber Paddle Shift
Titanium Exhaust (makes a nice noise compared to my old one which was equipped with a sport exhaust system)
PFF
Intake

(Waiting for XPIPE that is on order, I will install my downpipe at the same time)

I'm still in the break-in period. So I couldn't really try it yet. I like the MSS suspension, which I had installed after my first 600km driving.

The color is very special. I wasn't sure at first, but I'm starting to like it more and more. The colors, depending on the light, are absolutely fantastic. I'll post more pictures soon of the interior and probably a video. I haven't seen another picture or owner with the same color yet. So I think it's a bit unique.

Cool color, congrats!

TrevorM3 · 09-24-2021, 09:56 PM

dont think ive seen or heard of this color before. Looks great. Is this a solid color or metallic? looks deep, so i'm guessing solid

Great color!

This is such a beautiful color! And the red calipers go so well - better than the gold would have.

vanos84 · 09-25-2021, 04:44 AM

Did you add the red center caps yourself or it came ordered that way?

Beautiful color!

The back looks a little bit too much for me though.

There some pict with sun light and shadow. The pict does not reflect the real color, but not far. it's a little bit more dark.

Pict take by Samsung

This color is SO nice. AND mid-range!! Nice build man- love the combo.

WOW, pics #2 and #4 sold me. SICK build. I've never seen that blue before. Is it Flat based? like, no metallic? is it like pastel-ish? the pics kind of make it seem so and I dig it.

I love it. very nice. enjoy
