Congrats OP . Great car and stunning colour. PMS is my #1 choice in colour but sadly too expensive for me .
Question though, how come your M5 does not have the competition pack wheels ? |

Agree, and perhaps the OP has a much different disposable income than others. Haters will be haters. It's a beautiful color and looks nothing like the base silver BMW offers.

The competition package wheels are cast and the 5 spoke 343's I got are forged and supposedly lighter. The 343's are a no cost option with the competition package.

They're also forged light alloy wheels, the 601M wheels are not forged alloy, they're heavier and cheaper cast alloy wheels. Each 601M wheel is 5 lbs heavier than the 343M wheel. If you price the 343M wheel through the parts department, they're a few hundred dollars each more expensive than the 601M wheels. It's just a matter of personal preference. The 601M wheels are standard with the competition pack but the 343M wheels are available as an option for those who prefer forged alloy wheels. |

Congrats and thanks for sharing!
Ignore the haters, 99% of them will never be able to afford an M5. Enjoy it and feel free to share more pics anytime!

The pics at night really make the color stand out. I'd love to see it in person as I'm sure the pics just don't do it justice.
As for all the pricks that just want to yap it's really only because they aren't anywhere near being able to afford something like this. Its not you, not your money so please just stfu. if you don't like the color fine but save your horseshit personal opinions about OP's decision to spend money to yourself. Thanks for sharing sealionbeast

Looks beautiful......and yes, the competition wheels and the Style 433 (on M6 GC) are both cast and indeed heavier. Does BMW charge that much for all Individual colors? Or just the metal?

OMG. ¡
The car looks great, this painting is really changing a light silver gray. Metal flakes are incredible. You should be proud to have chosen Pure Silver Metal, enjoy your great car. |

It was the same on the E9X, where the ZCP (competition pack) wheels were cast and heavier than the standard forged 19s. I did not it also wad the case for the F10. |
