Saw a blue one at the dealer this morning (already sold).....

.....And it was awesome :jawdrop:

It looked like the M3 Interlagos blue, but I'm not sure.

Much more understated than I thought it was going to be, but still very potent looking.

BMW has put out another amazing car :thumbup: :bow:



edit: oops, wrong board :)

Exactly!

I was gonna use my crappy Treo Cam, but couldn't bring myself to try to capture such beauty with such lousy equipment.

Saw it at Sonnen BMW in San Rafael, CA.

Also saw an '06 X3- painted bumpers... FINALLY :thumbup:

My co-worker's husband stopped by tonight in the new M5.

He let me drive it around the block a couple of times....in the 400HP mode & had to keep it under 4000RPM, Iloved the heads-up display, SMG,& active seats.

Life's not fair....

The one I saw in So. Cal is Silver, not Titanium Silver but Silverstone. The first thing that caught my eye is the HUGE quad tips, much bigger than the M3's. To me, they are a bit overkill. The power seat adjustment's speed is not linear. It starts slow and if you hold on to the control, it'll speed up. And the meters light up in white instead of orange. The heads-up display is really nice too. Hey, where is the radio? It's integrated into the iDrive. :thumbdwn: Overall, an awesome vehicle. It's pretty much loaded, and how much do you think the dealer is asking? A cool $115k! :yikes:
