We are talking 5K vs FREE here !!
Sonoma- I voted for LSB because it is the classier color between the two IMHO and, as Stealth.Pilot mentioned, seems more classic for the car. I really like that blue. Best of luck with your new M5. Did you pick it up yet?

Sunday
Will post pictures of both next to each other before the SO is gone because it is assumed already by a member from Mississippi and he can't wait to pick it up because it's his first ///M so actually the excitement is all his rather than mine because ZCP is just a nuanced F10 M5 after all

I just noticed you may be biased

Oh Dah! Couldn't figure out what you were talking about because I've never had a car with a real color, always black, gray or silver (boring I know).

All kidding aside, I never cared for how the blue brake calipers clashed with the SO (and many other colors). BMW should make an option to have those things black. The blues will be much happier together. CLASSIC! Also, I believe that blue was a part of BMW's heritage, and represented BMW in its ///M logo.

If/when an epic M5 ever comes to market, and I mean one that rivals some of the best older versions, I will most certainly go old school and pick one of the classic blues like LSB or Estorri Blue or Cosmo Blue. I will research all BMW M blues and pick my favorite!

That's quite ironic
I know Hiren it's great a great deal man,
I basically lost 4500$ and half month of lease and the icing on the cake is all the mods on top
But hey it's a pleasure indeed knowing you and enjoy the beast in great health sir, you're so easy to do business with that's for sure!

Sooma, congrats on great new purchase. I like LSB a lot, in my opinion u did right move. Sakhir orange is rare enough colour, but nowhere close to be as unique as LSB.
I would paint rims though, as car would look meaner in my opinion.

I was surprised that I liked it!
And actually I have a confession after 25 cars this is my first blue and unambiguously not the last

LOL
Well, it might seem weird I still like SO more but I admire the uniqueness of this LSB way more and kids are blown away by the sheer richness of this color which no pictures can do justice

Thank you guys for chiming in
