This is the first one I've seen in red. I'm not sure which red it is. As it is a UK BMW press demo car it must a red from the BMW Individual option. The photo makes it look like Japan red which is quite bright and wouldn't be my choice. If I were going for red I'd choose the darker Imola red.

Not a massive fan of red cars, but a shame they don't do a red similar to the Audi blood-red.

It's a factory red - looks like Japan red to me. Good if you are a fire chief I suppose

Oh god. That's just plain horrible! Love the car but certainly not the colour! Well at least it doesn't suit E60.

Instead of so many exotic colours BMW shud offer for e60 better range of colours (already available for other series) which are appealing to the majority of us (shades of grey,silver, blue,black). Like it is now you see 90pc of all the e60s in the streets in just 4 colours.. Boring....

I could see an M5 in red, but no other E60 models. Just does not look right to me.

Go mystic blue! Bright yet mature, serene yet challenging!

I like it. Looks like BMWs electric red to me.
