Sweet car.

The Silver looks great. The interior is very nice as well. I'm learning something new every day -- I had no idea there was a diesel M5. That's cool!

When do we get to see an Electric or Hybrid get rolled out?

Anyone with insight to that?

The thing about the M badge is that:
-the people who know the difference will think it's lame.
-those who don't know the difference don't care.

So it's no win to put an M where it doesn't belong.

Actually it does belong. This car is now sold by BMW as M Sport model. If you want the badge a request has to go to BMW with the chassis no from the dealer. If they are happy that its an M Sport model they will send the dealer the badge FOC.

Looks JollyO good ! Congrats.
Maybe you'll agree that it is a shame that they have not added the M-mirrors to the M-Sport pack yet...that really is the cherry on the cake. That's why I finally decided to get them installed, end of next week.

No issue with the M badge at all, since a car with the M-Sport pack has M all over its interior (it doesn't say M5!)

Car looks fantastic and I am sure you're happy. That's what counts! Enjoy!
