First time I am hearing competition package is 600HP. There were 2 models in US that were claimed at 600HP that I am aware of, non comp is advertised as 560HP and comp is at 575HP. The 2 models that I am aware in US were the 2015 30th Anniversary and 2016 Pure Metal, both of which BMW claimed were tuned to 600HP.
You can use bimmer.work to decode the vin: WBSFV9C56GD595603 - 2015-08 Comp package HK stereo, typical options WBSFV9C5XGD595880 - 2015-10 Comp package HK stereo, typical options Only option difference seems that the black has Alcantara roof liner. |

Option 2 is nice, but definitely has some signs of wear and tear (driver's seat, gearknob and surround etc) and maybe even damage on the rear bar (where it meets the boot/trunk lid - see pic below). It too is missing some key spec items IMO (eg the full leather interior - dash, door cards etc and RSE). Certainly not fully loaded/every option as you have described (not trying to nitpick - just want to make sure you are going in fully informed on what you are buying) and doesn't really appear to have lived a pampered existence. Of those two I think I'd probably go Option 1 - the low kay white on red car. |

IMO red interiors can polarise people. I quite like them personally and have ordered a brand new car with red interior before, but some others I know wouldn't touch a car with red interior.

Yes I noticed the wear & tear items so I completely scratched that one off the list. I don’t care for RSE as though I have children they would never be in this car as it would be solely a for pleasure vehicle. I did use the website M Decode and realized option 1 has the full leather where as the black one in Beverly Hills has alcantara headliner but only extended leather. I would’ve liked to have the upgraded headliner but I choose the full leather and sub 500 mile history. Unless I find a option between now and tomorrow afternoon when the check is signed I’ll be a proud owner of one of if not THE lowest mileage F10 M5 in the country. |

Side note.. I was disappointed about no B&O but I do not mind getting a quality aftermarket sound system in its place. Maybe JL interior w/ Sundown Subs.. any particular setup go well with this platform?

See how you go with the Harman Kardon. I've not heard it in the F10 personally (I have the B&O in mine) but you may find it to be sufficient (the OE sound systems in most mid range Euro cars are more than decent for most people's needs).

I had a 2014 650i with B&O and a 2012 740i with Top HiFi.. there’s no comparison. I’ll be upgrading I’m sure. B&O should be standard on M Cars. It’s a shame

How do I know if it’s the HL premium? Will I have to wait for the car to get here before I know for sure? MDecode doesn’t specify |

As crazyinp says it may be a europe thing to call it premium. Mine came with DAB radio and a CD slot, there are sub woofers under the front seats and I think all of them have sound EQ adjust.

Just catching up on all of this abs my takeaway was, wow, prices have shot up. I didn't even think a 6spd would hit 75k, yet. I have a '16 CP with a 6spd and bought it in '20 for $57k (44k miles) makes me wonder where the market is heading!
My preference was 2 because I liked the color scheme better. Regardless, enjoy the new car and thanks for sharing the thought process behind it! |

Not the biggest fan of the options on the low mileage option....
But With those miles? In a heartbeat. You're buying a brand new f10 M5. Keep the miles low, and this car will never depreciate.. |

I’ll be doing the Dinan tune, intake, suspension and carbon front / rear. After that keep the mileage low and see how the value holds |
