Real or replica

I saw this down my street the other day and i thought
straight away that it was an m5 but then i thought it was a converted 5 series because M5's have xenons and this didn't

I would say it is an M5 ... no driving lamps shown in the front intakes like the standard M-Kit would othewise have, and the exhaust pipes look correct.

Plus, aren't the front wheel arches slightly more pronouced on an M5? And those look to be right for an M5.

The clearest indication would be SMG and all the proper buttons ... did you look inside?

If it isn't an M5, it's a darn good imitation.
