Definitely not my cup of tea, but very impressed with all the work they put into it.

It looks just like it does in the pics. Utes are very popular amongst Aussie trades people. Google Ford Falcon or Holden Commodore utes or FPV F6 or HSV Maloo for the high performance models. I guess the BMW M5 ute is quite unique, but if I needed a ute and wanted a high performance model, I would just buy an FPV or HSV instead and use the M5 sedan as a weekend car, rather than going to the expense and trouble of modifying it. That M5 ute is no longer 100% BMW anyway.
