Obviously, it boils down to what you like, however the black car looks much better.

I think it looks good(something different). He/She should've leave the shadowline and side mirrors bottom pieces black(just my opinion). Good job to that M5's owner.

When I saw that matt green E60 M5, the first thing that came to mind is that someone was trying to copy the "VF Engineering - Vorsteiner E92 M3 GTR" --- which includes the stars and writing from your jeep Anza
Check out the stats in the article below

IMHO the M5's matt green just looks too light to be agressive and there's also too much of it.
The M3's look works well as an eye-catching demo car.
(I personally would keep it oem -- no surprise there!)

I'don't know, all these matte colors are great in moderation IMO. The matte green M5 in the OP is not quite "there" - something is missing, and I don't feel like hypothesizing as to what exactly right now
