That m6 is gross. The m5 looks good. So it comes with akrapovic?

thanks, I can't wait. i'll post pictures as soon as I get it. I'm sure your ED will be incredible, bring a good camera! I was also looking at laguna seca blue, too much money at $7K, this was a steal.

thats a sick color, love to see them coming out with it as a stock color. $9k for the aftermarket exhaust is a bit ridiculous, but thats bmw i guess

Pretty ugly colors, but I guess with the money you save you can get it repainted. I'm definitely not a fan of the matte look.

It's because it's Akra. Have to price it similarly.

Here is a shot of my Santorini Blue E92 M3 vs my friend's Laguna Seca Blue E46 M3.

Under the same lighting conditions, they are nothing alike. They can mimic each other at varying times of day though.

I have ordered the mate black one with black interior, only four mate black m5s will be made for this "special edition" and two of those have black interior, the other two have SO interior. BTW, there are no special edition badges on these cars. They will come in December or January, so that means I will wait for another at least three or four months. Within four years I have spent over 9 months just waiting for car delivery, I really hope there is a time machine.

Thanks for photo Matthew.

I actually like the vintage look of the LSB a lot, but the SB is the way to go for sure, such a rich vibrant blue. Really neat how all these colours change based on lighting.

GoodandEvil.

I have waited 7 mo. 9 mo. 6 mo. - I feel your pain. I am doing ED spring break so will wait even more, lucky if it arrives here by June 2014.

it is a tad high for the exhaust but the entire package is heavily discounted from BMW which is great considering what you get. the discount got me off the fence. I do wish there were more colour choices.

Agreed. More color choices would have been better.
