Very nice FC! Maybe it does look different in person, but the green in your pictures looks pretty freakin nice to me!

Thanks. The green in the last photo in the garage with snow on it is pretty representative. I like the color more and more.

I know of someone that has owned a F90 M5 Comp and M5 CS, at the same time. Per him the difference is rather significant.

Edit: I had no idea that a CS is that much lighter. Geez… That is nearly two of me.

I've heard that the M5 CS is pretty brilliant. What I do not like is the interior. It's a bit too sporty. That and it's also a LOT more money.

Everything I've seen on the M5 CS makes it sound like one of the best cars in the world:

Yeah but for the same reason I want a GTS over a Spyder I’d rather have FCs M5 over a CS, especially given the dumb matte paint.
