Individual Imola Red F80 LCI M3 with M-performance parts

6ixSpd · 06-06-2017, 06:23 PM

Imola, LSB, Dakar Yellow. The holy trinity of the best BMW colours!

M4 GTS · 06-06-2017, 06:54 PM

Looks great. It was a great color on E46 but IMO looks better on F80

Red Bread · 06-06-2017, 07:58 PM

This was my Imola M Coupe at 14 years, and it hadn't been garaged the last three years. Just detail properly and it will always look good.

This colour looks great on this model.

Outside of a Ferrari, Imola Red is my favorite red out there. Why they don't offer it as standard vs that pedestrian Melbourne is beyond me.

Matt338 · 06-06-2017, 10:29 PM

Never been able to see myself in a red car...til now. That imola is just gorgeous

goj · 06-06-2017, 11:40 PM

It's so sad you must pay 5k to get a red M3.

We would love to have you come by for a visit if you're passing us! Would love to see the San Marino Blue!

Finally a really good looking color for BMW that is not some shade of blue

Really nice !

I'm tired of seeing blue BMWs.

moff · 06-07-2017, 07:47 AM

It pains me that BMW don't offer Imola anymore.

I think Melbourne red is awful.

I love the Imola on my 640 and I'm gutted I can't get it on my new 440 LCI.

You should be able to get the Imola on your new 440 LCI, it's always just a question about price...Through the Individual ordering system you should be able to get the color you want

Just take a look at Abu Dhabi Motors, they get all kind of models in different colors.

We had a dealer in Norway that sold a X5 40e in Melbourne red, so anything is possible

BTW: Love your 640 in Imola, beautiful car!

nice color, my e46 m3 was imola, I enjoyed it

TJS///M3 · 06-07-2017, 09:39 AM

Looks like I found my Imola Red brother! Looks awesome.

MN2///M · 06-07-2017, 10:55 AM

I'm really surprised no one has pointed out how much better this car would look with the black 666 wheel.

JibSTir13 · 06-07-2017, 11:25 AM

Great looking car - the color and carbon bits go well together.

F32Fleet · 06-07-2017, 02:14 PM

Where's the fire?

(sarcasm)

bunker · 06-07-2017, 04:02 PM

now THIS is the one I've been waiting for.
looks as good as I thought it would.

3s-a-charm · 06-07-2017, 06:45 PM

Yes, Imola IS the best color for an M3 - beautiful!!

LemonOne · 06-07-2017, 07:12 PM

As a current Imola Red owner:

OMFG!
