5 Series (F10/F11/F07/F18) UPDATED: BMW F10 5 series with M package official

[SKY]

Ah. Don't get me wrong, Alcantara on the seats on the M-Pack is sublime, and is something the current *E63* doesn't even have anymore, embarrassingly. However, I'm assuming the cloth is in the middle and the alcantara is on the outside (bolsters). If that's the case, then it kind of ruins the effect a bit to me, as a Leather combo with alcantara is supreme IMO.

The current ML, at least when it was released, had as standard some increidble alcantara/leather seats, with the alcantara in the inside part.

They should have just copied the 7 series sport package.

anyone know the rim size on the F01 M pack? 20's?

The default ones (302M) are 19" but the optional ones (303M) are 20".

OMG, that looks just incredible Best pic I've seen so far! What a beaty the 5er is with M pack....absolutely stunning!

 

[rollo]

Agree. Sure looks special in that shot. The rear isn't as flattering from what I have seen though, especially in light colors.

 

[K-A]

That looks awesome. But I think in lighter colors, the detailing the the M-Bumper might prove unflattering to me.

Either way, that car looks badass, and it gives the F10's that presence it needs.

Oddly, I don't think I've seen many F10's here. Every time I think I see one, I can't tell if it's an F10 or a SWB F01. Due to that, I now truly notice just how similar these cars look.

 

[klier]

Hmmm, I like the rear of the M pack a lot too. More sporty and dynamic looking than the elegance of the standard version. Standard 5er is a bit pain in the back to me somehow...
I particularly like it in light colors, where the black 'diffusor' contrasts nicely with the paint. Love it on 1er and 3er too, when they have it like that. My sister has a 320d FL M pack in Alpine White, and it's just gorgeous

 

[rollo]

I really hope you are right klier because I absolutely love the F10 in AW. And the M pack just sweetens the pot!

5-Series is hands down the hottest car in the segment right now. Then the XF. After that I'm not sure where the E and A6 land.

it looks nice in this pic

Did I miss this? M Sport is now configurable at least on the German site.

Typical BMW. You pay more to get less choice of colours. It's not as if the choice of colours you're left with are anything special. Carbon Black? A really old colour now and completely unimaginative.

M Sport also available on UK configurator.

Echo Betty's statement, colour choice is poor. All dark....

Where's Le Mans Blue?

 

[Mr Robert]

Wow, it makes those rims look tiny!

 

[K-A]

How much extra are we talking? To equip an F10 with the M-Pack?

Color choice might be poor, but what he said about Carbon Black is just wrong, no matter how old that color is. Carbon Black is here to stay in the BMW line-up forever
It looks breathtaking on the F10 imho......but then again, so would Le Mans blue and Montego blue...

Well, E-class *can* look a bit awkward in certain packages with certain rims, but to me a nicely specced E with AMG pack, visible exhausts and nice rims looks almost equally hot as the F10. But definitely much better than any of the competition, including A6 and XF.

Mostly agreed. E-Class and 5-Series this time around is like a coin-toss for me at this point.

One thing the F10 would give me is that little extra "exclusivity" factor, by equipping the M-Pack on select, premium-priced examples. I'd gladly pay a little more to have my car stand out from the legions of others. But I guess I can be happy that I got what to me is the best styling package out there (AMG) on my E-Class for almost free. So there's a perk to either side.

I loved the XF, but for some reason, it hasn't worn too well on my eyes. I still love it, but I guess Jag styling isn't my thing so much.

A6 was never really even on my radar, and I'm sure the next one will be a clean and respectable looking car, but won't speak to me either. Plus, Audi's styling language never turned me on.

And K-A, over there you don't get the cheap models like an E 220 CDI Elegance. Standard in basic trim, that's not overly hot...
But when I seean E500 AMG later with 20", my jaw drops a bit...
