I'm not sure if this has been posted before...I apologize if it has. I am debating what color to get...although I really want white.

Then get white...whats to think?

The M5 looks good in every color in which it is offered, including white - you'll find advocates and naysayers for each. Search this board by color names and you'll find lots of posts and pictures.

Jet Black, but White is much easier to keep clean. Buy what you'll be happiest with!

Yo!

Check out the pictures of my white/caramel M5 in the owner's gallery. I have had the beast a month now and I love the color.

Enjoy the ride!

I've heard arguments surrounding what is/isn't the most noticeable color to those friends of ours with sirens and little flashing blue lights.

Thoughts / Opinions / Stealth secrets??

Two colors I wasn't even thinking of considering before were white and imola. Both look very impressive. Saw them at the M5 experience.

Get jet black!

as for stealth: take the badge off. i was flying down 280 today, saw a silver 550 Maranello (ironic, as i was on my way to the dealership to see some more 360's and choose my color scheme), and RIGHT next to him was a chp baddie. he didnt do anything. we ALL got off on woodside road, with him in the left most turn lane, me next to hm in themiddle lane, and the ferrari behind him, all waiting at the light. as we wait, an anthracite grey comes flying down the offramp and take the right turn w/o slowing down (good turn too!), cop waits for me to move, then suddenly cuts left and goes after him. Why? it had the badge on it. My condolensces to the guy who got caught.
