Kees 581 Report post Posted May 15, 2023 To be honest I think that colour is awesome. Definitely an acquired taste though. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 1945 Report post Posted May 15, 2023 Not sure about that. I don't want to live in a early Fast n Furious movie. I feel like the M5 is meant to be an inconspicuous absolute weapon. Having it in a look at me Lambo green doesn't fit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TonyT 48 Report post Posted May 16, 2023 If I were in the market the colour would be a plus for me. I wish we got more brightly coloured BMWs sold new here, BMW NZ seem intent on flooding the market for black, white and 50 shades of grey. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TonyT 48 Report post Posted May 16, 2023 Technoviolet is still available as an individual colour on some model builds. Thundernight was a similar launch colour on the M240i and there are a few in NZ. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMW M used to talk to enthusiasts, now it's just to milk people with more money than they know what to do with. Yes, that is a green tinge you see in my reflection... and I've owned an M car for over 20 years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But a lady at work was walking past and saw me playing with the configurator and said she likes that Holden and what a pretty colour. Oof. I should have shown her the Ford Mustang with the frontal damage (M4). 1 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
