Monday afternoon I will be picking up my new F10. A few items to be added, M performance Carbon Fiber front spoiler and rear diffuser.

This afternoon they where tinting the windows... Can't wait, I'm starting to love this new color, Mediterranean Blue. Anyhow can't wait to see if this M Performance edition with M Power Kit and exhaust will be different from a standard one. Just got his pic from my dealer!

Congrats! I know the feeling!

Excited for you Bud. There's nothing like that new toy feeling. Can't wait to see pics of the subtle contrast between the Mediterranean Blue and carbon fibre

Congrats!

I really like Mediterranean blue on my F11, a beautiful color.

[PARTS@STBMW]

Congratulations! Can't wait to see the final product!

Picked up the car of Tuesday it looks fantastic but the M performance parts are back order until next Friday so I took delivery and will go back for the parts

[johnnya]

Missing parts are front spoiler(carbon), rear diffuser. I was going to go with carbon mirror covers but I think it would be too much.
The dealer did order them and we will try them on but not too sure about them.

The exhaust sound pretty decent I'm happy with this M Performace package.

I will be installing my wheel spacers today so these 20" will look better!

Are the 434 wheels part of F10 M Performance edition in Canada, or is it special order?

As far as I know they are only available for M550d in Europe. Beautiful wheels!

Looking forward to photos with your car under sunlight. When I saw my F11 outside a clear day for the first time the sun really made the color justice.

Yes thèse 434M are part of the M Performance package with with M power pack. Too bad they didn't include the painted caliphs like the 2,3 and 4 series

That's because there are no M Sport or M Performance brakes available for 5 Series, neither from factory nor for retrofit.

Never noticed that until you mentioned it. How about that

This is the first time I notice the M// logo underneath the side marker light?

The m logo is an ordering option I guess because half of the 4 series at the dealership has them the other don't.

My 5 was built on June 18 and the 2 other M performance pack 5 serie at the dealership built date Jan and March, only the March on had them also ???

I don't know...every M// 5 series posted here yours is the only one with it? And I've seen hundreds+ posted

[johnnya]

This is not just the m package, it's the m performance package for what it's worth

Congrats, beautiful car !!

Congrats, she's a beauty!

Congrats on your car , the colour looks amazing, I also have the M Performance package December Build with no Logo , your going to love the extra power , I had a 2011, 2012 and now a 2015 F10 with the M performance package which by the way is being taken back by BMW due to the ice storm in Halifax back in February , dealer has now ordered me a new 2016 which will be here in December, so, this will be my 4th F10 since 2010 . Obviously I still love this car !!! Enjoy your new ride , maybe I will see you around the streets here.

[johnnya]

This is car is my replacement for the ice storm. Long story but sold my2012 F10 for a Ghibli, sold it after 3 months took a 428i GC for 3 months while they order the 435i GC and 3 weeks ago I was informed they where going to replace it. I decided to go back with a 5.

I very happy so far.

My 2015 came with 19" wheels , 2016 will be with 20" , I am curious as to how you find the ride on the 20's, I have an extra set of 19" 351's that I use for my winter set up and seeing that my new car wont be in until December , I won't get to experience the 20" set up until next spring. I am a bit apprehensive about the 20" as this is the first F10 that I did not take the Wheel & Tire insurance as BMW has raised the price of this insurance in Quebec to $ 2500.00 due to all the claims . Having 2 sets of 351 wheels left me some comfort in case I crack a wheel , I could always take one from my Winter Set Up or vice-versa , this wont be possible when I get my 2016 with 20".

What brand of tires did your car come with and did you take all season or Summer Performance tires ? My 2015 came with Micheline all season which I find are better than the GoodYear LS2 that I had on my previous cars.

Thanks

Gab

The tires are Bridgstone potenza RE060A

On my previous F10 I was running 20" with ac schnitzer springs and the ride was softer then this. Mind you my previous one was not running run flat.

I've also kept a set of 351 from my previous car that I will use for winter.

I know for 2015, the earlier model didn't came with the 20" when ordered with M performance pack, mid-year they changed to 20"

My dealer still has a 2015 black on black with 20" with a build date of March.

In any case beautiful car and tire ride is very acceptable with our Quebec roads.

By any chance, did you ever own a M Z3?

I have the M Logo there. Are you sure it's not an LCI thing?
