I suggest you sit down before looking at the price

Haha I hadn't spotted that.....maybe you get to choose the body colour underneath

[M5Dave]

That'll be 30 BMW dealers with a new demonstrator then.

I wouldn't have thought the answer to slow sales of the F10 M5 would be to take the standard car an vulgarise it to the point that no normal person would wish to be seen in it.

As for the price

I bet it's extremely easy to make a normal m5 cost £95k with various options

It's not that easy.

If you tick every single box on the options list, and go for one of the individual paint colours, individual wood trim and full leather, it comes out at £96,360.

I'm no car paint boff, but why if the other two, I assume matt colours are painted on, is the red a wrap?

Which would be sensible, so you can get it pealed off about twenty mins after it's delivered and you realise it looks awful !
At least you can pick a decent colour underneath
What do you get for that massive premium ? It certainly doesn't seem to stack up to 20-25k ?

Silly paint, full leather, 20" wheels, posh speakers and a piano black interior.

I see there is an M3 one too.....that's only £74k

It does not appear that there is too much extra performance in the performance edition?

[Olf]

Do your own - get an ali plate made up that says 1 of 1. That's exclusivity shoppers!

Whole thing is quite bonkers!

[andy43]

Wow, the Performance Edition includes reversing camera, speed limit display and (heavier) multifunction seats.
At least the engine will sound better through the BMW Pro loudspeaker system...

Well - I thought it had high speed internet

I've just spec'd up a M5 on the configurator.

£83490, that is using Individual paint (£82,445 using std paint), for a car with the same spec as this execpt the 'Piano black interior trim with inlay and laser engraving'.

So that is £11,650 (£12,695) for a red wrap or the dull paint job.

Absolutely fking mental.

You clearly haven't valued the fact that it's a "limited edition of 30"......£10k for being one of the lucky 30 is obviously a bargain!
