That was a gorgeous combo. IIRC, that was stuka's color scheme.

Ok I have to admit it I don’t follow these auctions through the end but this one has my attention ...

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/19...twin-turbo-35/

Isn’t this a $50k car or does the red interior kill it ??

I am no fan of the interior but the rest of the car seems right ...

Ok I honestly did not know this “Pure Silver” edition ever existed on the F10 M5.

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2016-bmw-m5-5/

$133K!!!

911r never disappoints with his driving videos though. Insane.

OK speaking of never knowing it existed that’s pretty cool.

And you can get the exhaust done so it sounds like this.

I also love Cavallo Point where those pics where shot. Great restaurant and views of the golden gate. I’m only like 15 min north.

I saw that too.

Mercedes did offer a 7.3L AMG V12 version of that car in Europe. BRABUS just replicated it on that US car.

There is also a MINT 2001 red SL500 on BaT.

Holy crap. That sounds decidedly Pagani-esque. I'd buy one and do that just for the sound. How bad-ass.

Great find, JST.
