Got rid of this and got that!! Whatcha think?! Out with SO in with LSBlue

Though I may regret it but I am finalizing a deal on same year model 2014 M5 but with CPackage and I am afraid it might be a weird color and ZCP might be too harsh! However it has more options like driver assistance and LEDs,

Car still in process of swap but mine is taken over and I took over the other one!
Both parties are great people to deal with so far and,
AMAZING enough both are forum members !

So out with the SO exec/B&O/20" 104k and in with the LSB Exec/LED/ZCP/20"343m/DAssis 120k but both are leases and again lost about 2500 unless you count that the new car gave me some miles I didn't have on the old one so may have lost less 1k then!

Was it worth it?!!!

Chime in and let me know

Say whether you want LOL

Congrats, although for me LSB is "a lot" of blue for the F10 chassis. I think its better suited on the M3/M4.

I think LSB is way better than SO. Blue is the quintessential ///M Color. Blue is to ///M as Red is to Ferrari. It's the way they are meant to me.

I grew up dreaming of Estoril Blue ///M cars, and then Laguna Seca Blue replaced Estoril, and Monte Carlo replaced Laguna Seca.

You have to own and drive a Blue M at some point in your life. And you will notice on the Autobahn I-95 other cars will get out of the way.

That said, neither is the ultimate choice. We all know, real men drive Frozen Grey.

LSB is nice. Both are a bit in your face colors.

CP is not too harsh. Unless you live on a farm where there are no roads, I guarantee you that your roads are smoother than pothole infested roads in JC and NYC that i drive on. It's the perfect combination. I have been in SUVs that drive harsher than a M5 with comp (note: Chevy Tahoe and its GMC version)

Please get rid of the stripes. It reminds me of someone with bits of salad stuck on his teeth after eating and he didn't know it, but everyone was laughing! Poor chap

Definitely a nice color. The ONLY thing that bothered me about that car is that it did not have Full Leather. It was originally a dealer spec'd car and not an Individual order by a customer. The dealer employee who spec'd the car didn't realize how big of a difference Full Leather makes, probably because he has never been an M5 owner. Lol! Otherwise the rest of the car is great!
