Very rarely does a car get launched with all colors looking good and the F10 M5 is one such car. You can't got wrong whichever choice u make

even though i like my cars black, if i was going with the F10 M5, i'd be having a major decision problem regarding the exterior colour...
however, the author of the thread (vishwen) has a dilemma between Monte Carlo blue and Singapore Grey - here i see Singapore Grey as a better fit (don't get me wrong, both are stunning)

Waiting is a nightmare. It's been 5 months for me. I approach suicide at times. These are dark days. I dream of rumbling, piercing headlights coming out of the smoke on an empty road at night and wake up shaking with fear and crying. Someone help. Please.

Back to the color. I have ordered my M5 in Sigapore Grey. Last weekend I could see the color live and I am still convinced that this is the right decision.

My dealer told me that he selles about 50% in Monte Carlo Blue. Even if the M5 is quite rare, I would not chose this color. But on Mauritius there are most probably not more that 3 M5s in total or am I wrong?
