Sick car I love the color and color combo.

I have to admit that the clear bra isn't really clear anymore with the matte color and it being only halfway up.

Still love it though.

Congratulations on your new car, looks amazing. I have taken delivery of mine about 2 weeks ago, Frozen Grey, and I absolutely love the matte finish.
I will post pictures of mine in the end of the week.
Enjoy it in good health!

Things to consider, this is my first BMW and non AWD. In addition before buying

kms. If I had to describe the M5 in one word I would say the car is bipolar. At

comfort settings the car feels like driving a boat on the the road. However at

sport settings or even comfort setting (if you drive aggressively) the car will

transform into a muscle car. Bottom line I love the car and have no regrets over

choosing it over the GTR. Love the gadgets, the feeling of driving a boat in heavy

traffic or when feeling lazy, having 560 horses when wanting some fun, and the

comfort of seats and luxury. However things I don't like about the car is with

DSC engaged the car's back will swerve if accelerating fast, I would have liked an

AWD trans on the car similar to a porsche to better stabilize the car after sudden

acceleration. Also you can feel and experience the power and beasts under the

hood of the car of however this feeling is not translated with the exhaust note

(hoping akrapovic exhaust will cure this).

Thanks for the honest review. How is the steering feel? They have dampened the sound of the exhaust in this M5 to give it more of a luxury driving experience and instead routing "prerecorded" exhaust sounds through the speakers.

Congrats on your car! It is beautiful!

You will also have to keep us updated on how you clean the exterior. Anything out of the ordinary you have to do to maintain the frozen color. Does it show dust more than a normal black clear coat?

That is one sexy M5. I see what you mean about the clear bra. How about applying Clear bra on the whole car?

Thank you.
The steering is fine and you can change the feel and stiffness. Additionally I just realized that a car that costs this much should have better brakes. The brakes need to be pressed hard to be effective and the stoping distance is bad.

Congrats!! Give Xpel Stealth matte clear bra a try. You can't tell it's on my frozen grey so I assume it'd be the same for the FB.
