Your photos made me pull the trigger on these tips as well. Love the new look!

Threw on the oem painted spoiler to give it a nice clean look. What do you guys think should I have kept the carbon?

Aftermarket wheels can be very hit and miss, but those wheels look great on your car M5_Adis. Offsets are spot on too.

Hard to miss when you go with HRE. Nice whip.

In the end I'd settle for the oem painted spoiler.

While I'm on here I'll post my AK type muffler finishers with slanted ends, were not easy to get.

That's huge news Noggie. Shame to let go of such a great example, but I suppose that time comes along for everyone sooner or later.

M5Rick · 10-15-2021, 02:04 AM

^^ Hope it went to a good home.

It was not planned, I put out a vague post on a M Facebook group, I wasn't sure what to do, it was pristine and probably peaked value wise now. I was approached by a buyer and I decided I had it for 2 years, it was 7 years old and perhaps this was the best time to let it go, it would have gone into winter storage in a matter of weeks anyway, and I got a fair price for it.

I'm going to put the money aside, haven't decided what to do yet.
I have a 2021 Imola F90 M5 CP that I can buy in March if I want to, but I'm not sure, its a press vehicle for BMW Norway right now but its service ends in March.
Then again I may go something a little more exotic, an AMG GT C /GT R is tempting or I may be sensible are replace my BMW i3s electric with a new electric, like a Porsche Taycan or something.

Not sure what to do, guess I will take some months to think about it.
The i3s is may daily driver and I was planning on using the old 850i a bit more next year.

I still have the car for another week or two as the buyer lives in a different part of the country so I can do a few farewell drives still

They were interested when I bought it, but I got the deal, we have spoken in the past as well so I guess its going to a good home.
Who knows, the new owner may show up on this forum.

I came across this 3 series estate to which the colour looks like Imola Red on my bike ride today.

M5_Raz · 12-10-2021, 02:12 PM

Cleaned up the engine bay and topped off the battery 🔋

ruben356 · 12-12-2021, 06:12 PM

Tackled my drive belts and tensioner over the weekend. Looks like the stretch belt might be OEM if these numbers indicate anything lol.
