All M5's starting from July 2005 to July 2006 production ( all were referred to as 2006 models ) had a standard ignition key. All M5's produced after that ( referred to as 2007 models ) had ignition buttons! I believe the earlier build M5's were never exported to the US.
Can someone please confirm if their M5 is a pre September 2006 build and has an ignition button?

Its beautiful, congrats..i'm hoping one day to get an M5 myself..
ps: The interior is great, the only thing my personal taste would go for is to take that wood grain out as i personally feel it clashes with the red interior, the brushed aluminum interior moldings would look sick with that red...but STILL LOOKS BEAUTIFUL

Thanx everyone for the compliments. Now i need to know some must mods that should be done to the car. Even though i think it looks amazing as it is.
