hehe... just the fact that the M5 is a 4 door sedan is stealth enough for me.....

Most people don't know what's hit them even when they see the rear badges!

frankly, i think color has way more to do with stealth than the badges or spoiler. You can delete the badges and spoilers off an imola red or le mans blue M5 and it is still going to attract way more attention than my my anthracite stealth bomber, with badges and all.

The M5 badges, etc., are not flashy or attention getters. Only people in-the-know can identify it.

I'm with TFung & Greg. My CB is stealthy as it is (knock on wood). As my dealer put it, you can take the badges off but those 4 pipes are dead giveaway.
