Vic55 Such an outstanding car, congrats for such a beauty! Maybe you or someone else can help:

I intend to order an M5 comp. also in aventurine red. Saw yesterday in person a 4series and was blown away as I saw aventurine!!! I was asking the BMW Product genius, if that is aventurine ii or iii. Toady I got the answer, it was iii. As far as i know the F90's will be painted in aventurine ii. So, is there any visible and true differences between this two different aventurines? I pray not!

Best regards from Germany, Björn

yes, yours is very likely aventurin iii,
I cannot imagine there can be an obvious difference, otherwise they should give the color a totally other name. Would be misleading if it is really different I think.

Zero and I mean zero regrets on this color.

I have had Guards Red and Carmine red with my Porsche's and Rosso Corsa with my Ferrari 458--- this is my fave red just barely over Carmine:





Carmine



Guards

Carmine is my favorite Porsche red, always reminded me of Imola.

Vic55 Beautiful car! Does your car have a partial or full clear wrap?

I am waiting till the last second to pick a color waiting for allotment very soon. I am partial to the AR coming from a ford Ruby Red. I initially picked IOMG because I was able to see it in person and looks 10x better than any pic or vids. I have the sneaky suspicion that AR is the same way. Your pics draw out the color better than other photos/vids I have seen. Unfortunately, the dealer could not find any model BMW in AR within 100 miles for me to get my eyes on.

I love Carmine for its rich and deeper tones. Guards is bit more orangish but not as much as Toronto with the G8X.

Nice shot Vic55 You never answered my question in regards to what you do for work. But whatever it is, keep doing it.

Vic55 thank you for your posts. I wasn't sure of the color I wanted to order until I saw your M3. My local dealer happened to have an 8 series convertible on the show room. The color was even more impressive than your photos depicted.

Guess so. Never hurts to at least ask though. Right? At the end of the day we're all car guys working hard to acquire more. Nothing wrong with being curious...

What do you guys think of Tartufo interior with Aventurin? I'm trying to decide on that vs. Ivory. With Ivory I can get the carbon bucket seats, so that's one plus.

First off I never saw or read Kevin's ask on what I do...

And 2nd- its not wrong to ask and I get it quite often publicly and via PM's. Ill leave it at that but my main goal here, besides some tongue in cheek humor, is to share my long term real life ownership experiences with my cars.

Ill entertain a PM if you really must know

So I tried to duplicate a pic in the same or similar location today but with less lighting since its really cloudy today...

In the lack of lighting the car is very deep not so robust versus minor orange hints in the sun
