even the standard 3-4 series has red seat option...
The 3 Series does not have a red interior option in the US.

Where the red interior option is available for the 3 Series, it is the exact same color as the one here - Fiona Red Individual.

M3 really has 2 options 95% of people will pick, Silverstone or Black, which is really sad on a car that will cost most people $90,000
How many are really choosing a true orange or baby blue?
You’re reaching on this and freaking out over a minor color difference. It’s unnecessary. Sakhir Orange, Kyalami Orange, whatever. It’s not the monumental change you make it out to be. There were folks who loved Sakhir, folks who hated it, and plenty in between. The same will be true for Kyalami.

As for the Yas Marina w/Yellow interior, that takes over for Sonoma Beige which was so unloved that it sold poorly enough to be discontinued before the end of the F8x model run. Yas Marina won’t likely sell in large numbers either, but at least it won’t be because it’s dull.
