We don't know yet if BMW has plans to offer the very limited production run M5 in other parts of the world, but in Japan, only 10 examples will be made available for order exclusively in August, with first deliveries scheduled for October this year.
The exterior of the car is painted in a BMW Individual Frozen Black Matt, with a slightly darker Matt black shade used on the 20-inch alloy wheels, while the front kidney grilles, door handles, exterior mirrors, exhaust finishers, and diffuser are painted in a dark-chrome color. LED headlamps come as standard.
Inside, BMW's designers opted for a full leather Merino interior in a bright Sakiru orange shade, coupled with the BMW M Performance carbon interior trim.
The Nighthawk M5 also comes with the newly announced Competition Package (also available on the 2014MY M6) that lifts the output of the bi-turbo V8 from 552hp (560PS) to 567hp (575PS) allowing for a 0-100km/h (62mph) sprint time of 4.2 seconds or 0.1 seconds faster than the standard M5. Other upgrades included in the package are a sportier and lowered suspension setup, plus a unique tune for the Active M Differential, rack-and-pinion steering and M chassis control system.
In Japan, the new M5 special edition model is priced at 18,200,000 Yen, which comes to around $181,600 or €141,400.
