Great!
I made a short video of my friends 700bhp M5 if you want to check it out?

Nice find.

That's been up for a while. I figured most people knew about that site already! As a newbie I figured it wasn't worth posting about.

There is somewhere on this site where someone finally posted a break down of quantity of M5's made in each color and interior. I'm running Imperial Blue, 1 of 198! I bet there aren't many of those 198 that are also a 6MT and have the Silverstone interior!

I'm not sure where they get their stats from, but they appear to have missed 2 cars from the totals, one EU LHD and on USA LHD.

Also, some of their other stats are wrong. For example, for the Competition Edition they said 200 were produced in equal numbers of colours - according to the build sheets, only 198 were produced and they were split 122 Carbon Black, 76 Mineral White.

With regards to your car technician117 , 457 cars were Imperial Blue worldwide, but only 198 in the USA. Of the USA cars:

27 x Full SS2 - 2 manual, 25 DCT

43 x Extended SS2 - 6 manual, 37 DCT

So you have 1 of 2, or 1 of 6 in the USA

Wow, that's awesome! Where did you find the cross comparison data?

Also, I always mix up "full" and "extended"... my car has "additional" leather over a base car. The dash top and door panels being the most obvious areas.
