That paint is stunning! Reminds me of the old Candy Apple Red.

Not even lipstick. A bunch of fins and flair where once a sensible functional bodykit and appropriate exhausts would have gone.

Is this the same car that does 0-100 km/h in 6.4s and maxes out at 230 kph, and weighs over two tonnes?

I mean, it seems like overkill on such a car.

The diffuser is too aggressive for my taste given there are no exhaust pipes. But that’s just me. Nice color!

This is such a gorgeous build! Fantastic color especially in this M-Sport trim… and the M-performance parts make it even more aggressive! 🔥🔥🔥

Nice color.

The styling of this car is getting less offensive the more I see it, but the proportions are still horrendous… the 5 is no longer a low sleek sports sedan. Parked beside my F10 or a G30 this thing looks like an armored limo.

I’m still confused about the amount of black plastic on the front. It looks like a tacky aftermarket concept the way there’s no color between the grille and lower facia. To each their own I guess.

Aha!

Might have found the right color to use to Autoflex my G87!

Was thinking about Aventurine, but this looks great 👍.

This is the Vegas red standard color, right?

Looks just like one they have in the showroom locally.

Still a great color!

Not a huge fan of the diffuser, and I'd change those wheels out for the ones in post #17, but other than that this car is spot on. Perfect color for the G60 too.
