You're absolutely right bro, both have 4 wheels and doors.

I think the haters need to pull their head in & appreciate the workmanship involved in a project such as this.

I'm amazed people on here are too ignorant to understand what this is...it's simply a promotional vehicle to showcase all the Mperformance products which is why ALL the products available are fitted (yes I think many are tacky).

This would have been featured at the international motor shows but COVID stopped those, thus it's designed to grab attention, which is what it does. Have people already forgotten about how manufacturers vie for attention at shows ?.

Love it or hate it the M-tri colour inspired paintwork is absolutely amazing. Its so refreshing they didn't just take the easy route & do a simple wrap like everyone else does.
Above all it's great to know there are still tradespeople out there capable of this quality of paintwork & that a manufacturer had the good sense to use them.

Congrats to BMW M & to all involved. Incredible workmanship.

Love the paint on this car. Sure it's too much for a DD but I'd drive on Saturday or Sunday. The rest of the time, I'd keep it in my 6 car garage if I had one.

Considering I am a wrap artist myself, I tend to appreciate creative vinyl wraps/paint jobs as every car has unique features you can accentuate with design. To most I know these things can be too "in your face" or tacky, but amongst a sea of one-color cars these Need for Speed/Fast & Furious-looking cars will always garner more attention whether it's good or bad, and some people enjoy that attention. Just the other day I debuted this Huracan I did for which the client requested a galaxy-theme. Next thing I know his TikTok hit almost 3M views and the car went viral.

That being said, I can't say I'm a huge fan of the uneven gradient from red to blue, and the wheels make the car feel a bit Superman-ish, but the subtle gradient lines are a nice touch. Also, I do like how aggressive these new M performance parts are.

You're really comparing a paint job of gradients which is extremely difficult to achieve with a vinyl that is pre-printed on? LOL

The graphic on the vinyl can be anything and is entirely unrelated to the skill of the installer.

That paint job on the other hand..... takes some serious skill.

For a dedicated track car or ring taxi..maybe. Not for someone "normal" driving in the hood. Might as well paint a big number 3 in yellow on side (or maybe 24??)

Never underestimate BMW's ability to ruin its own products. This is the second car (M5 Special Edition) with gold wheels I guess the best you could say is that at least they're trying something different.

The stacked exhaust is interesting though.
