2013 M3 Color Choice- Pseudo Individual

What do you guys think Vermillion Red would look like on an M3? I think it will blend with the lines quite nicely and the carbon fiber roof would pop.

The other color kicking around is Estoril Blue, but not as much a fan of it.

Cheers.

My 335i was vermilion red and I received compliments everywhere. That is a great color choice.

Vermillion is a great color. The name sounds cool too. Since you're talking old school with the Estoril, why not Imola or Hellrot Red? Good luck!

why not get an M only color, instead of one seen on other standard cars?

Definitely get Vermillion. It's a beautiful color.

I'm not positive, but I've heard Estoril is no longer available. I think Monte Carlo Blue is the closest you can get. (I could be wrong, though.)

Either way, you should definitely get Vermillion.

estroil would get my vote. Ver. Red is a little more mature color IMHO. but it's your car, get that you like the best. Don't settle at all.
