My build

shellbmb · 10-06-2013, 11:36 AM

I'm still on the fence with what new car I want. But my dealer needed to order one anyways, so he said he'd order it how I wanted it with no obligation to purchase.

Alpine white/black extended with aluminum trim. Figured the aluminum would provide a little interior contrast since I wasn't going with B&O.
Comp pack with 601 wheels
Exec package
LED package
Black kidney grills

I listed to a car with B&O yesterday and it didn't blow me away so I didn't see spending the extra cash for it. Almost did the assistance package.

Plan to change out the side vents to black, black out the door handle inserts, wrap the roof black and probably put a black spoiler on it. Possibly powder coat the wheels, but might just leave them as is.

Coming from a C63, the M5 feels huge. Also considering a leftover 2013 E63 at a good price. The E feels like a good size in between the C and the 5 although it's not that much smaller than the 5.

First world problems.

The E-type AMG is an awesome car but not exactly smaller than an M5, check the stats:
