Individual Imola Red 2022 M3 G80 Competition xDrive

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I think quite a few people have been wondering what this color would look like on this car. I've had it for about a little over a month now, but haven't had the chance to take any photos due to the weather here in Germany.

Car Info:
2022 G80 M3 Comp xDrive
Executive Pack
Carbon Exterior Pack
Carbon Interior Pack
M Carbon Bucket Seats
Shadow Line Trim
Full Black Leather

Additions:
TLG Mudflaps
M Performance Front Splitter
IND Front Reflectors
1000M Wheels in Frozen Gold
Evolve Titanium Shift Paddles
12mm F & R Macht Schnell Spacers
JB4
xHP Stage 3

The car was just detailed and coated by John from CarClean Medicus in Eschenbach, DE. https://www.facebook.com/carcleanmedicus. I would highly recommend him to anyone who lives in Grafenwoehr/the surrounding area in Bavaria. The first photo inside John's shop is probably the closest to IRL color.

Without further ado~~

Wow. I remember back when I got my E46 M3 that was THE color. Good to see it again. Looks great on that G8X

Looks so good! Much better than TR in my opinion. Should have been a standard offering.

TR to me, is a bit too orange whereas this color is screaming red in the more realistic sense.

Had an Imola F80, it was love at first site. Initially wanted an Imola F82 and European Delivery, but the deal on the F80 was too good to pass up.

Looks awesome. Congratulations!

I have an Imola Red M4 on order. Which of these photos do you think is the most accurate depiction of the colour in real life? The first two photos are how I imagined it based on the E46. The photos in direct sunlight look a bit overexposed. Is that how you see it?

The first photo is the most accurate depiction. The color is quite dark compared to Toronto if you have them parked side by side.

So nice to see a G80 in a "proper" BMW red … I have a very similar spec on order in Melbourne Red Metallic. So silly we have to cough up big dollars for what should be standard M colors.

I have driven a Toronto Red X3MC for last few years. It ain't really red.

I've hated red on every single M3 after the E30…until now.

Gorgeous, my friend. Excellent build!

Imola Red is lovely.

Lot going on with the car though. Maybe it's the winter wheels/tires + the carbon fiber exterior bits + mud flaps?

I think putting on your summer wheels/performance tires, removing the mud flaps and removing the 4x4 stance will make it perfect.

Enjoy in good health!
