Official ALPINE WHITE F10 M5 Photos Thread

Picked the car up just over a week ago from Park Lane BMW - these guys did a great job and I've bought loads of cars from them because of that.

I decided I wanted a competition car after a couple of test drives, the way the car handles compared to the regular car is a lot better for what I want in a car. There is no doubt though you lose a touch of refinement but I'm cool with that compromise.

The sound from the ZCP exhaust is superb and it should be on the standard car in my view. Steering is substantially more direct particularly at the centre. Suspension is notable stiffer, maybe as much as 40% and the lowering makes cornering a touch more precise. No it still can't hide its weight but the car is a marathon runner doing a 10 second 100m. The black wheels really finish this car off. LEDs are fantastic much more depth to the light than Xenons, and the new navigation system is great, with Online Entertainment. Also nice touches like being able to scroll through the track list that is already randomised on the HUD along with phone contacts on the HUD is much better.
