I feel the f10 is a failure...
Nothing like NA powerbands. Yea the E60 is not as quick but I'd put money down that its alot more fun on a track. I'd be looking at 997tt's or gt3's.
I mean for crying out loud the f10 has simulated acoustics to make it sound like a race motor... Throw me a freakin bone here.
Thats why I was looking at x5m's because that motor is more well suited for an SUV or x6m crossover not a race car. Environmentalists ruined the F10 in my eyes.

The F10 overall is an aesthetics failure for me... I personally don't care how fast it goes if it doesn't look appealing. (Bugatti Veyron looks like a cockroach to me)
The new MSport or M6 on the other hand...

I cant believe your going to sell this car. I am not a fan of Black wheels but let me tell you they look fantastic on your car. Painting calipers is not my style but you choose the perfect color to maintain the perfect amount of contrast.
if your parting out, please let me know.
PS: Your car is PERFECTLY lowered.

sad to see her go but you will not be disappointed with the F10 M5. The gains you will receive with a force induction car far exceeds a naturally aspirated motor. The potential the F10 M5 is amazing. i spoke to Eloy about the RPi exhaust and he assured me that the power gains from the exhaust alone was night and day. Hurry up and order you F10 and get it over with

if i had the money, i would definitely order an F13 M6 in performance red. youre right, the performance gains you can get out of that motor are going to be huge....not to mention the gobs of torque that thing has compared to our NA S85s....
but sadly, but the time i have enough money to purchase a brand new M6 vert....ill be in the market for a Porsche 911 Cabrio. you should go for it! (but keep the E60 is possible)
