Dont know man, I think the pics should be posted somewhere on the forum. Its been almost been 4-5 years since delivered, very sparingly used.

The CF bonet spoils it for the car. Can't really find a point adding that as it does no good the car looks wise and I don't think he race that thing. The rims minus the chrome part and the exhausts looks good to me.

This is probably the best M5 in India, I love that color !
Mav- Were most of these mods carried out at Navnit service center itself? What happens to the warranty in such cases?

Boy does he race, you should see the way she is driven. He is an car fanatic, most of the mods have been done by the owner himself.

The customer has done it on his own, the car is way out of warranty so these mods are OK.

Warranty will be void for electricals(if any changes are made in the ECU) and engine components if the mods have any effect on them. And Sahil , if this is the "best M5" you have ever seen , then bro you haven't seen anything yet. Lolz.

Well, I have seen my fair bit of M5s buddy

It's a matter of personal choice here, I love that color which is why I termed it as my best. Obv there are M5's with a lot more mods around, but personally I don't like over-modded cars. Exhaust,ECU,etc are enough IMO.

Color wise , I agree , that color is one of the best colors for the M5. LMB right? Mods wise, its just plain ugly.

I think it's called Interlagos Blue.

ecksreturns · 22nd March 2010, 13:22

You are right , it does have a tinge of purple in the flakes , so its not the LMB .

The colour on this car is called Monaco Blue. Not sure whether the colour mentioned by Sahil and this one is the same.. As far as the car is concerned, pictures dont do justice to this car. You have to see it in the flesh and i quite like the way the exhaust sounds.

Dippy, it's defiantly not Monaco Blue. Monaco Blue is available in India on the 3 and 5 which is much darker, navy blue.

BEEM3R · 22nd March 2010, 13:46

This is most definitely Interlagos Blue ! Monaco blue is way more conservative.

Yes youre right my bad. I just remembered Flying Spur's 320d is Monaco Blue. This has to be Interlagos as you mentioned.
