[Cyrax91]

Car is sick. I bet its crazy fast.

I love how the current M3 still looks new sitting with the brand new M5 doesnt look outdated to me at all. Love all those cars!

Seriously, the design of those vents is a disgrace.

Now, they're going back to all looking the same. Not that it's a bad thing.

The chrome has got to go... Why imperial? Why not azurite, monaco or carbon? I am sure we will be seeing an all gold, or all chrome middle eastern version soon... but dark blue is the color I would get on this car.

[GOLFFRR]

awesome

[grimlock]

My god, it's ordinary looking, except for the quad tailpipes.

I think it will look badass in person - just like the old ones. In pictures it was nicer then a 550 but when you actually were up against it in person it was incredible.

[DLerner]

For all of the extra cash, it would be nice to see some substantial body tweaks over the base models like we saw on the E30 and E46 M3s.

Not loving the side vents, but there is no doubt that BMW is back in the looks department. After the Bangle cars and especially the E60, the F10 is looking gorgeous!

[Dan Parker]

Any heat soak?

I am afraid that when I see it on the show room floor I will just write a check. I already got calls from two local dealers to put my name on a list to come and test drive it when it arrives. Such a great looking car.

+1...... Bangle caught a lotta crap from people, but his designs were brazen and daring......... and missed! BTW, I agree...... lose the chrome side grilles..... body color would rock!

The chrome side vents and kidneys are excusable. After all, that's what aftermarket accessories are for, right? But at the heart of it, the necessity of DCT without a manual option is sad.

Lovin the color

[ron_jeremy]

Not feeling those rims, and the side vents are butt ugly, probably an OEM from Hyundai or something
But when these small parts are beeing pulled out and ranted on, the whole pictures looks pretty damn good imo.
The Imperial (is it a reharshed Biaritzblue?) isn't doing it for me, Monte carlo makes this car looks so much more fresh and modern imo.
But as a whole, this is a beast, and i think it will stand up nicely against the competition, as every BMW does, and to it's buyers.

That color and those wheels do it no justice at all, white or lemans blue with the 19's is where its at, the pictures here you cant really tell between the m5 and a 550 with some aftermarket crap on it.

[BL 5]

I like the look of the rims, just not the color.

[RC3]

sick...

[Davin]

such a handsome car

[stealth.pilot]

Looks fantastic. The photos don't really capture the beauty of imperial blue. Here are some good pics.

Also I don't know why the side vents are chrome. Other F10 M5 pics have shadowline side vents that match the shadowline window trim.

[Robin_NL]

Thanks for the pics man. I 'd choose that colour and set of wheels in a heartbeat. Excellent.

Come to think of it, I prefer the other style M wheel more.

soooo fuckn beautiful!!

what is the color of this interior leather?
