Melbourne Red...

[F1Venom]

An E92 in MR with black rims or an E90 ZCP in MR both look fantastic. They can be very tastefully modded, especially with carbon fiber bits which really stand out on MR.

I wonder if it's to cover up license plate holes?

The first, second and third things I noticed are that you parked very close to that other car. Fourth, your car looks hot!

I'm running 295's at the rear right now, and looking to go something as meaty as yours up front. Considering 275/30/19

[Sal@AUTOcouture]

Only 212 E90's and 824 E92's were manufactured in the US/Canada Market

This is why you seldom if ever see this color

Thanks W!

Front is 255/35/19
Rear is 295/30/19

Little more meaty in diameter by about 1/2 inch, 1/4 inch more sidewall helps on the shit CT roads.

Those gold Volks look fantastic on it. I never would have picked that color combo but it works. Are they G2s? What size are they?

My first and only choice was the Melbourne Red. And that's what I picked up about a month ago.

Growing up in Germany, a military brat, we lived right in front of the local american BMW dealership. That's where I saw my first love, a 1989 BMW E30 M3 in Henna Red. Since then, even though my previous E46 M3 was a Silbergrau, I knew I would end up in red.

E30 - Henna Red
E36 - Hellrot
E46 - Imola Red
E92 - Melbourne Red

The subdue white and blacks are cool. The individual colors? Very cool, but for me, an M3 is always red.

[Malek@MRF]

I personally love Melbourne Red, it's actually a very nice shade of red with gold metallic flake in the paint that shows well in the sunlight, and can be subdued like someone else mentioned in different light. Very dynamic color.

My Melbourne...

After owning a AW, I wish I would have went with a MR. I was considering selling mine to get a MR but found out how hard it is to find one in that color.
