Sakhir Orange F10 M5 Revealed Among Fleet of M5s for BMW M School

COMMENTS

The F10 M5 has hit BMW's Spartanburg Performance Center in force. There are now at least 15 new M5s being prepped for duty at the BMW M School in Spartanburg!

Among this fleet is the very first Sakhir Orange F10 M5 we have seen. Sakhir Orange is a new color available for 2013 M5s. You can see photos of all the other available M5 colors in our photo threads compilation.

All the M School M5s will be equipped with M Carbon Ceramic Brakes, an option which is actually being delayed for customer cars until next year.

Thanks to Philip for the photos.

Funny this thread is started about an hour after I was on BMWUSA.com building an ///M5 out and saw that color and wondered "wonder how that looks in person". There was another color I wanted to see in person....some type of silver that had a weird name, forget.....

Cheers,

journeyguy · 06-16-2012, 09:15 PM

Still MCB and frozen silver is my favorite.

What?! so you can actually ask to drive one if you go to pick up a completely different car?! My car is waiting for a vessel to bring him over

M_Power_Fan · 06-17-2012, 01:16 AM

damn, the more colors they offer, the harder to choose

hinckley · 06-17-2012, 09:46 AM

I may have finally found my M5 color (up to this point, I've been considering a special order Interlagos).

Does anyone know how Sakhir compares to Valencia from the 1M Coupe? Although I like Valencia for the 1, I think the M5 needs something just a bit less electric.

The 1M is Orange; Sakhir is red with an orange hint. Two very different colors.
