As suspected. MR on the car looks fantastic. An M240i in this, keeping the cerium grey exterior and opting for the Tan M seats will look great.

CSBM5 do you have any pics of the "ferrari Red" M3?
I did but actually deleted them off my old phone. There are numerous examples on the F80 board and online. Here's one link to someone who ordered on in FR back in 2015 for example. Here's a link to an M4 in Ferrari Red.

Oh, and updating my prior post, it was actually Oktoberfest 2019 at the CCA HQ now that I think more about it. The FR sparked my friend to repaint his E46 M3 wagon he built in that color, Rosso Corsa, (car is in the shop now getting rear fenders done and paint). There are actually a number of "Ferrari Red" colors, Rosso Corsa is the version that BMW (and most others) consider true Ferrari Red. I think the 2nd most popular one might be Rosso Scuderia. Here's a link with a number of examples of various red Ferraris over the years.

Thanks for the links! Man, those M-cars look amazing in Ferrari Red!

Cool…isn't that an F22? Was really looking at and curious about the new shape in Melbourne Red.

I'm really debating Thundernight Purple, but don't know if it's too feminine.
Feminine?? 😮🤪

It looks good on my son's F22, and so it was under consideration on my G42, but I went with PBM instead.
