BRG looks awesome, just not on a car that's as big as the M5.

Disagree.
Looks out of place on a large car. This color looks good on smaller sportier cars imo

Would love to see Imola or Melbourne red.

Frozen colors just don't do it for me.

Yeah frozen colors just make this car look unfinished and cheap, like someone plastidipped it.

Java green is awesome, and Marina Bay Blue is a close second. I just wished car manufacturers offered some decent color choices other than usual white, black, or 50 shades of gray

Atlantis Blue is my favorite out of all of those indie colors, but I think a darker blue is better suited for the M5.

I can agree. Tends to look more like a wrap than an individual paint job.

FYI,

BRG = non metallic (easy to tell from the above pic)
OG = metallic

Maybe you're lying maybe not.

Yes in fact I saw an F10 like yours at century west bmw in so cal when I was visiting a couple years ago.

If you like your car, that's all that matters so who cares what I say?

BRG is easily my favorite from the bunch. So classy! Can't wait to see more of these in person.

I cant blame you. I was looking for a manual car and this was in CENTERs website but no pics. I ask for pics and the first time I saw it I said how can i use that for work. Thats why it was sitting in their showroom for a month.

But I am a porsche guy too and i realized its a GEM.

Besides being a manual, it has all the packages plus it has CCB, Comp pack, and with rear tv the kids.

Agree, I'm not a fan of most of these colors on such a large vehicle.

+1 Should one be allowed to put British racing Green on a family vehicle? Isn't it a sportscar color?

Not a big fan of the new individual colors. I think the new M5 would look great in Tanzanite Blue or Citrin black metallic. Just my humble opinion
