I would really like to know why? Or do you just hate it?
I think it is sexy except for the color of the wheels, it would look a lot cleaner with just a silver color.

Kinda odd, M5 seems like a nice size car, any bigger, and it’s just extra weight and size for comfort, and no longer “fast”. Whatever
X…

Hmmm, the breathers are going to piss oil all over that engine. (Trust me, I own one).
I hate the wheels, I think flat black looks off on that car. I despise the wheels, and I love the death harnesses and bolstered seats in a 7 series :lol:

Car looks hot, except the exterior looks a little bit empty to me, not much going on. I don’t mind the wheels but I think a different color would have been better. A little too high diameter for my taste as well.

i like it.
I wouldn’t use the harnesses or seats however, those seats are fairly uncomfortable. I like the look of the outside though.

The wheels fit that car, I wouldn’t throw them on something else.
