M5 CS

Post by mik »

1. Visually I love the 4-seat setup. Practically though - bit stoopid.
2. 70kg saving is a 70kg saving, but does it really matter when the starting point was 2 tonnes?
3. Performance figures are incredible
4. Yellow DRL’s. Yuk. Guess what will be the next modding craze....?

Rear seats are dumb, but I'll take it without that box ticked please.

The front seats have holes for a harness but no place to mount them :lol:
How about not having a sig at all?

I like that idea, I always liked the E90 M3 CRT. The M5 is too big for me though so I won't be buying one :lol:

I do like the bronze grille with the green.

Evo did an 'advertising feature' written by the editor this month on the Competition M5. Was all praise no criticism. Presumably that's why the M2 CS won ECOTY this year ;)

I LOVE cars with twin rear seats, you can rarely get 3 actual sized humans in the back of cars without them looking like a huddled up group of children anyway.
I’m not sure such sculptured back seats is a great idea mind you.

That colour combination looks fantastic and hopefully yellow daytime lights don’t glare as much as the white lasers brand new cars seem to have.

Quite surprised how much I like that.*

* just realised the colours remind me of an Alpina and it looks like a car Alpina would build. Please remove the central bits of carbon on the seats though.

Dave!

The 2 seat rear was standard in the 4 series when it was launched, you had to spec the full rear bench.

Zero desire for that. The rear seats are gash as well.
