A number of UK dealers had these on sale a few months back. I saw one in the flesh at the dealers with Champagne leather.
It really did look nice.
Would love to see one of the members post some pics up, it really is a striking colour.

Thanks

If you are speaking to me E60Beemer, yes, that is an E39M5 in LMB/Caramel. One of the prettiest combos ever, IMHO.

Glad to see the interest generated by this thread. But I see that none of our members appear to own the colour in question. Here are links of pics from cars on sale by UK dealers. The quality of the pictures is quite bad, but it gives you an idea !

Yes it is a nice colour combo. I test drove one earlier this year and the extended leather mixture of cream and back was really nice.

Apparentley, these cars were spec'd by BMW then given to the dealers as demos on condition that when sold, BMW got 75% of the list price.

This is why there are a number of identical models floating around, all 525ds.
