Thats the hottest F10 so far. Didn't thinks the BBS FIs would fit well on the M5 it being a bigger car, but they were perfect

Just came from iND shop, picked up AB painted reflectors and met Anthony and Andrew. They are closed on Saturdays but still took time to talk with me and show me their M5. These guys are clearly enthusiast of the 1st order. I'm sure my M5 will get plenty of iND treatment. Thanks guys!

Damn...70#'s and no side bolster adjustment......

I think the weight reduction might be as impressive/substantial as the power gains!

Do work Son!!

Guys I don't get it, the whole point of a M5 is perfect blend of luxury, comfort and performance, yet you guys are stripping out all creature of comfort, utility -rear seats so it can be lighter and faster.

I get its your show case car for promo on parts but don't get why a buyer would do this. Notoriety and frame perhaps? It makes sense on your 911 but on a M5? Why? Start with a light platform first. I can start off with a dump truck and take off more weight than anyone can take off from a M5. Carbon fiber the truck bed, put in Recaro racing seats for driver seat, remove the rear bench seats.

Does the build make any sense at all..... No but we wanted the staff here to take a new M5 and build a dream car. Creativity creates innovation and no idea for the build was shot down during any meetings.

We're car enthusiasts - autocross, track days, club race, shows, hanging out, whatever. Nothing we do with cars makes sense to the outsider especially in tough economic times. Does it make sense that I spent the equivalent of a new Honda Accord on my car last year - probably not. My wife didn't think so. But it's what we do, we like it. M3's, M5's, 911's etc are icons. I myself appreciate what IND is doing with the M5. Some of us don't need heavily padded seats, self closing doors, sunroofs, power trunks, and 20 million speakers in our cars. STRIP IT! Put a carbon hood on. Matter of fact - clear coat the carbon. Cheers IND.

No I get it, I am saying you get a better result starting off with a Cayman, Elise, 911 or a platform started with sporting/racing in mind versus a platform that had to do all. I am talking about ROI. Your R will higher starting with a lighter platform and in this case R is for race.

I especially get why iND is doing it. This is their promo. Unless someone gets off racing big saloon it doesn't make sense for most M5 buyer go to the extreme to buy a perfectly packaged car and rip everything out. Most will buy few parts of this total package and I think that justifies iND for doing it.
