There's no sin in keeping one of these beauties bone stone. But they do look good modded as well.

who needs mods - it's an M5 for christ sake (although maybe a "turbo" sticker on the windshield would make it different from the posers)

My 550 is bone stock. I love the look of the LCI 550i Sport (172s, M Tech kit, blacked out exhaust tips) and I would not change a thing about it cosmetically.

+1 I agree, just from your description your car is gorgeous anyway. In your case mods would just take away for the original beauty. Mine, however, will need some help. Wheels and some more body mods (still undecided as to which kit/mods to do -I want it to be more unique than the ubiquitous M-Tech kit) and lighting and performance mods ( ESS supercharger?) are definitely on the table.

Nothing plain about an M5 Eric...

Even stock, an M5 will turn heads and get people drooling, so I am going to disagree with you and say your M5 is spectacular

I think we are all just used to seeing mod'd ones here...

I likey...

+1 bro.

Let's do even trade OP. My 550 for your M5. I'll just have to deal with the boredom.

I cannot believe how many AW M5's we are seeing on this board.
everyone is starting to catch on....AW IS THE BEST!

AW does look good, but with the M5 - who cares? IT'S AN M!!! AW, Silver, Interlagos Blue(My Fav) it looks great as is. There is a reason so many are trying to make theirs look like one.
