So what's up with the Silver 'M5' on the front row, is doesn't have HUD so is it a real M5 then?
AFAIK HUD comes standard on all M5s.

Well, I'm not sure about other countries, but the US brochure/catalog lists the M display Heads Up Display system as an option.

Yep, HUD is a $1000 option in the US. It's a must-have though.

"Have you experienced 12,675HP?, 24 M5s & 1 M6?"

I stayed at a NASCAR event for a while--until bored out of my goard. ~{;^) But, the noise was very impressive--many, many, many HP. And, I have been to numerous PIR road-racing events--which are very noisey too. But, they were not so boring. There's a reason to attend those besides watching crashes. ~{;^)
