yeah I'll second the weird wheels but it's neat to see just how much of the concept made it to reality.

It almost looks raised - the front end is a bit weird. The wheels look like there is no clearance on the wells. "scrapppe..."

I like the wheels. And for some reason, the front end in the second pic (on the right) has a hint of CX-7 to it for some reason... maybe that's just me.

The gauges are amazing.

Remember the Aussie version of the M5 is still a "concept" - I wonder if this may resemble the 2008 M5?

WOW - DOn't know if you noticed but if you look closely at the Flexa Wheels you can see how one of the "spokes" goes in and the next one comes out - VERY COOL...

Forget the wheels... I just find it interesting what's considered a "concept" in the land down under. I mean, several of these so called "concepts" are already in production and offered elsewhere. And remember, the 5 was already available elsewhere before we saw got it in North America.

Sorry guys, that is the concept for the Mazda5!
That concept was first reveiled in 2004, at the Geneva Motor Show:
