BMW's M5 Pure Metal Silver Edition With 600 Horsepower & Special Silver Paint

via hypebeast.com

BMW presents the new M5 Pure Metal Silver Limited Edition, also known as Competition Edition in Europe. Only 50 units of the Pure Metal Silver Limited Edition will be made, and the high-performance sedan is a U.S.-only affair. Built upon a M5 with the Competition Package, the special edition offers more power and a multi-layer paint job as an additional highlight. The sedan boasts up to 600 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque, which is 25 hp and 16 lb.-ft. of torque more than a M5 fitted with the package. The added power stems from an increased boost pressure and “targeted modifications.” It is worth pointing out that the car’s chrome-like look does not come cheap. The Pure Metal Silver paint job includes BMW’s most expensive paint option, $10,000 in BMW Individual’s Catalog. The car will be available this August for the price of $130,900.

London-based artist Slinkachu has been taking over the streets with his miniature toy installations since 2006. In getting a look at his more recent work, we find Slinkachu often times tackling various environmental and political issues with his artwork.

Slinkachu uses everyday backdrops and street components to set the scene for his particular pieces, ranging from a leaf used as a wall for graffiti, to a painted line on the road meant to represent a sandy beach, or even weeds growing from cement cracks to mimic a forest.

It might be July, but that hasn’t stopped opinion dividing rule-breakers Vetements from unveiling a new collab with luxury outerwear label Canada Goose. Vetements’ SS17 collection, unveiled yesterday in a Parisian department store, is actually 18 — eighteen — individual collaborations, and Canada Goose has supplied some heavy-duty outerwear for the occasion.

The collab features red and navy versions of Canada Goose’s Snow Mantra jacket, which were included in the show, alongside new riffs on the Macmillan jacket — which has been produced in a particularly attractive reversible urban-woodland camo color-up. www.theclymb.com
