tmvatlanta's MC Blue 2014 Comp

tmvatlanta · 12-09-2021, 10:45 AM

Not new to bimmers but new to the F10 platform. I'm on my 4th E39s (2000 Dinan M5), wife has her 4th X5 (E70 X5M). I make this as a doccumented thread for our F10 M5.
We bought it with 72k miles from Audi Beaverton in OR and have it transported to GA. The car has extensive options list; only exclude rear seats entertainment and full leather option.
The plan is to take care of any maintenance needed and OEM+ mods. As it's a daily driver, there will be no power tune. It has more than enough in stock form.
It's being paint corrected and I'll coat it with GTechnique CSL & EXOv4. I have this combo on our other cars and like the ease of application and durability.

While I have some stuffs removed from the car, I de-chromed some stuffs with a CF vinyl wrapped.
Also replace the rear diffuser with a CF hydrodipped one.

Ordered new spark plugs and Bosch coil packs along with Redline fluid for the differential from FCP Euro.
