Thanks for the well wishes fellas Glad to share and if you guys have any questions, please feel free to shoot. I will do my best to provide any information i could. There's already a few questions being asked. I will need to spend sometime looking into those because quite frankly, I have not given those much thought thus far like the stereo for example...

Thanks, bro! Those are glossy. I like them matt. On the tint part, i generally don't do it for practical reason. Too many cars on the road have excessively dark windows and you can't even communicate with them with hand signs. Not a good idea.

The dealer told me that it's very hard to strip the original color off the calipers cos they use a very thick coat of blue paint. They did that for a customer, and it was back breaking. Anyone who wants to do that might wanna think twice.

Congrats on the new M5! As others have already mentioned, the color combo is astonishing!!! You have inspired me to order our F10 this year with the Sakhir Orange leather interior, although the question is to Frozen Silver or AW?!?!? Either way, I'm certain she will be a stunner One question: Did you get Extended leather?

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!
