The E60 m5 is perfect, I think it looks great and has even more performance to back it up. Great car, im on the list for one, but im not sure if I would rather not have a M6. Great video, thanks!

I think the new M5 looks kind of like a CTS-V in that picture, If I was going to spend 100k on a BMW I would definitely go for the M6

I beg to differ, this is me driving our car on the nurburgring:



I agree though that a basic 520i with piddling 16" wheels looks crap, but the new m5 is a very menacing machine.

all the best

That car would look so much better with a lower trunk lid. It just kills the lines of the car!

And 21" wheels are overkill. Some nice 19 or 20" wheels would look a lot better. Right now the 21" wheels make it look comical, especially when combined with the nasty looking back end.

In the end though, the performance is ridiculous and I sure wouldn't mind driving that car! You can't see the bad looks from the inside, so you can just enjoy the driving pleasure...

Nice color Adam - I may have to consider Black/ Portland Brown or Black / Indy Red with black wheels after seeing your pic ! I'd debadge it, black chrome the exhaust tips , then glue a " 535d " badge on the decklid .

I dont think thats what the driver(english) of the MkII Gt3 thought as i overtook him pulling out of Ex-Muhle, whilst he was under full acceleration.

Oh well

Here's a pic of the new Hartge ///M5 with 21" wheels.
The pics are up, didn't see no Caymans though
