Looks awesome. I like the 5 team (5 series and X5 designs). All others seem to be battling for "fugliest of segment".

I've never been bombarded with so many wonderful Bimmerpost notifications. So far the flat black w/that red interior is may fav.

Are these actual production vehicles or computer modeled?

I am not trolling nor spamming. This is my opinion. I currently own 3 BMW’s and owned 9 total. I am a fanboy, however I am not thrilled with the new styling on newer models. People can agree to disagree. It is healthy to different opinions.

The red interior color is really sexy. I am not familiar with configuration options on the new M5, so I wonder is it possible to spec the interior all red. (without the black portions of the seats)? I think it would look 100x better all red.

This Grey looks so close to Skyscraper... it does not seem worth the extra cost.

Those red seats look like straight out from the 1960s Austin Power Shagadellic universe.

Come on new BMW design team, shake this style off, the market wants sober, clean, functional designs.

It’s a nice color but I don’t think I’d pay extra for it. The car does look great in darker colors though. I’d like to see it in tanzanite blue or darker.

Didn’t see it but I’m guessing it was rude. Been there too, pal.

You might have a point to some degree but when you’re spending that much on a car, why not have something kind of unique and special I think it’s a nice color. I think it really stands out. I like actually like it.

I really don’t understand what the purpose of this car is for the US market.

I understand it’s cheaper to just bring over the EU designed compliance car here but surely they could’ve atleast tried to put together a product that would make sense for the US market

It is nice. Looks like the color I had on my 2009 Mazda 6. It had lavender hues in the sunlight that faded to a more bluish gray. I would expect an individual color to be more special. Although, if I bought an M5 this could easily be my choice.

Trust me this looks nothing like what you’re describing. I don’t like lavenders or purpleish hues of Grey. I do like grayscale Colors I have two gray cars now and I like to be low-keyed and blend in so it’s perfect for someone like me
