Absolutely agree with this.

I was surprised to see the silvery metallic colour in the red paint but it works a treat and shows orange hues depending on the light.

I learned pretty quickly that these cars cannot be judged by photos and videos. Theyve gotta be seen in the flesh.

I believe it's the wavelength of light in this region of color that makes some people see more or less orange in red than someone else.

It's trying to imitate an Italian car with none of the beauty or sophistication.

Except Toronto Red has a bit of an orange tint in person. And I'd definitely pass on the wing.

I bought my Rosso Corsa Red M3 at Riverside BMW. It has all the M Performance specs, front splitter, rear wing, Exhaust and diffuser and was $99,525 MSRP. I am new to the site and will post pics later of the rear M Performance exhaust. diffuser and wing. I personally would not have opted for the M Performance wing however, I spent a year looking for a dealer willing to sell at MSRP and no Dealership in the entire state of CALI was willing to let me come in and spec it out myself and sell it for MSRP. Don't hate, appreciate what the M3 is. I understand the Fast and Furious comment as that was my first reaction when I saw the Dealership online photos. I don't regret buying it. I always say, if you see a car at the Dealer and you don't like the color, the specs, the price or options, don't buy it. I wanted an M3 before the interest rates were out of the stratosphere. Even now I don't see a large inventory of M3's in Cali. I see mostly M3 Competition xDrives and I wanted a rear wheel, manual transmission sports sedan. I have an Audi RS5 and I don't feel like BMW's xDrive is better than the Quattro system. The M3 rear wheel drive, manual transmission is a true sports sedan, IMHO

No lie one of my favorite colors RarriRot but they ruined it with the interior color choice and the wing has to be deleted IMO! Long love RarriRot
