I personally love the red interior. And the silver / red combo is about my fav choice.

Also, the use of red leather in a sporting BMW is entirely fitting and recalls the halcyon days of the 507 (inspired the Z8 - one of these in my club silver / red).

Agree. Ditch the cupholders - drinking coffee should be done in a cafe... 2 hands on the wheel at 10 - 2 please

Smile Just to add to the confusion.

It is not easy to photograph this colour and retain an accurate impression of its real life appearance. The first photo is a bit too bright and the second is a bit too dull ... it is somewhere in between. In my opinion, it would look great with all the exterior colours except Melbourne Red and Jet Black (I don't think it is bright enough or red enough to complement Jet Black).

Remember its all opinion based.

I'd just spring the extra for Jerez, the quality of the paint on the E92 is far too bad for Jet black to look any good, IMO..

It's just opinion as Lucas says. I just do not think that it would contrast properly with Jet Black ... that is it wouldn't give the lift you would expect a red to give to the combination, because of its brown tones. Again opinion, but I would think that Black or Palladium leather would go better with Jet Black.

The Red looks Great, It looks even better with the Extended!
I have always loved the RED, from the IR in my E46 and now the Fox Red!
The Red is a MUST for my E92 M3! AW/FR Extended

Fox red looks great in pics... so I'm pretty convinced based on that alone, but hopefully I'll get to see it in person or at an auto show before my new order goes status 150.
