Need Help!!!
I have to Decide by Monday, I;m getting a MY2010 E90 AW. I cant decide between the Bamboo beige or the red fox. Everyone tells me to get the red fox because it stands out and not many cars have it, but I reall love the way the beige looks. I had an 08 335i with the beige and loved it, but i like the beige in the M3 more because its mixed in with black and the 335i didnt have that. Then there is the issue about the red fading a lot faster than any other color if not careful. I never had red in any car and I never seen the fox red in person and I wont be able to until I get back from Iraq in October. Please Help!!

Sounds like to me that you have already made your decision. You say you love beige and others are telling you to get fox red. Go with what you like.

Good call. I've had 2 red interiors, and even with my anal maintenance, they don't hold nearly as well as other colors. Plus 2 more things: the 'extended' option is way too much IMO, and the red color on the M3 is the least attractive I've seen (IMO as well). Finally, I had a hell of a time selling those 2 cars because of the red interior; it's definitely NOT universally liked. Black is a safer bet on the M3 IMO, but beige is better than red. My 'lighter' color choice was gray, but black was my second choice, so I was fine with that. Enjoy your new car buddy.

Sadly no, my car is not delivered yet. It's supposed to arrive on Tuesday. I'll see if I can take a few pics before I take delivery.

Despite my LOVE for fox red, you did the right thing by going with your gut/what you really wanted. You'll love it!

Fox Red, and I say this as the owner of a JZB/BB E90. It's all about the color combo. With AW I'd go FR with brushed aluminum trim. It'll look great. JMHO.
