I saw red interior for the first time today

e popa · 10-03-2008, 09:39 PM

Didnt really like it . Its not like the imola from the e46. I was really looking forward to getting a white with red interior. I think now Im going to get the black , maybe even the fabric . What do you guys think?

bmstyle71 · 10-03-2008, 09:42 PM

fox red?? it's more of a brown tint than imola red..

e popa · 10-03-2008, 09:49 PM

Yeah found that out today, it didnt really look bad , just not what I expected.

GTM · 10-03-2008, 09:58 PM

I wish it was more red than brown.

e popa · 10-03-2008, 10:04 PM

I had heard that it was more brown but want to see it for myself before I made up my mind.

torredresen · 10-04-2008, 03:05 AM

Lol, it's the colour of a fox

More brown than red, I have it , I love it

Love the fox red!!!

MJC///M3 · 10-04-2008, 08:06 AM

It also really depends what exterior color you get it with IMHO....I ordered space grey with fox red....I just think that color combo is perfect IMHO. Fox red is also amazing with AW, and JB. IB is one of my favorite colors...but not sure I like the combo of IB and FR.

In the end, its what you like; either way your getting an M3...so you cant go wrong!!!

endofanera7 · 10-04-2008, 06:23 PM

IMHO, the best color combo is Black ext and Red Int!!!

MWorldorder · 10-04-2008, 07:03 PM

I have black and love it.

M2381 · 10-04-2008, 08:56 PM

I saw fox red in person and I love it...regret getting silver

Voltigeur · 10-04-2008, 10:05 PM

I love it but each to their own. It's not a 'red red', more a clay red.

Deda · 10-05-2008, 04:58 AM

different,but still good for me.

dawgdog · 10-05-2008, 07:56 AM

I had Imola Red interior on my e46 M3 and must say that I prefer Fox Red. I think it will be easier to live with over time. I'm very pleased with extended Fox Red.

footie · 10-05-2008, 08:02 AM

Fox red is a great colour to go for. For a start, being more towards to brown tint allows to to be used to great effect in colours that otherwise wouldn't suit this combination, SSII being one and JB being another.

It's a colour you either love or hate and in your case it's the latter.

PS

Why not look at PS interior, it's also a good colour with white.

I have fox red and IB...IMHO I love it and have got nothing but compliments about it...

if you were at yesterdays meet I was the first E92 in our row...maybe you saw it maybe you missed it...

BRETT0429 · 10-05-2008, 10:23 AM

i was between the red and black. i really liked the red but thought over time the novelty would wear off. i got black and love it but the red is very nice and hot looking

MTROIS · 10-05-2008, 10:37 AM

I have the speed cloth/leather combo and IMHO, it is the sportiest looking choice. Would be perfect with AW...and rare too.

drvai · 10-05-2008, 03:34 PM

Fox red rocks. You don't get bored of it. Looking into the car, specially at night when you unlock it and the interior gets illuminated. I have it with AW and the combo is perfect.

The nice thing about it is that is not a tacky red and you don't get tired of it (as in the case of the coral red in the 3 series).

chili cheese · 10-05-2008, 04:18 PM

I'm actually surprsied that Coral Red is not available for the M3. No it's not tacky, perhaps you haven't seen it. I have it in my 335 and it's more "sporty" or aggresive than the Fox Red IMO. The Fox is very nice as well, just different, and it may be something I consider when getting my M.

montreal red · 10-05-2008, 06:16 PM

well i wished fox was more like coral red on the 335s but it isnt... but compared to the other colors, i still like fox the best.

It is terra cotta color. It will grow on you. The other options are pretty blah, especially with white. I love it and everyone who sees it makes favorable comments.
