About the 2013 BMW M5 sedan
The M TwinPower Turbo V8 engine in the BMW M5 Sedan provides peak performance with excellent efficiency.

With 500 lb-ft torque, 560 horses and a 0 to 60 time of 4.3 seconds, to say it performs would be an understatement. The high-rev eight-cylinder M TwinPower Turbo engine and its performance cannot be ignored. But performance is nothing without efficiency. On average, at increased performance levels the all-new BMW M5 features about 30% better range than its predecessor. This boost in efficiency is possible thanks in part to the Valvetronic throttle-less intake technology, High Precision Injection, and twin-scroll turbocharging technologies. The Valvetronic system varies the lift of the inlet valves, essentially creating 16 separate throttles and allowing the engine to ‘breathe’ more freely and perform better with less consumption under high loads. In the High Precision Injection system, gasoline is combusted at extremely high pressure with an excess of oxygen, which is both precise and efficient. And now that the M5 has a larger fuel tank (21.92 gallons, to be exact), you can just keep on driving.

I think Monte Carlo Blue is the best blue you can get next to Grabber Blue Metallic on the 'Stang.
Mine would be 102k with the 6-speed (yes I will get that) and BMW individual leather

[MOPAR74]

Here is the one I built: Alpine White, Platinum individual leather, piano black trim and pretty much every other option for a grand total of $114,476











after looking at these pictures... and knowing what this car is capable of... If I had the means... I would totally buy this car, right now no questions asked

Are yellow calipers optional?

I got it at $92,095. White, with black leather interior, manual transmission, and HUD.

Ended up at $104,495.

$97,000









Sakhir Orange interior might be too much to live with on a daily basis however. In that case I would opt for Champagne merino through BMW Individual. Feels a bit too luxurious for an ///M car however.

I don't know why the photos are showing up in yellow. The only color available is Blue unless you opt for Carbon Ceramic breaks (those are yellow), which may be offered on the MY2013 model but for now are specific to the F12/13 ///M6.

I wish customers could choose the colors of the calipers. Blue fits well on a blue, white, and even Singapore Grey ///M5 but not as well on others.
