I'd like to see more pics of a red 5er. Does anyone on this forum own one?? lol. Has anyone seen the pic of the red one in the gallery, it looks pretty hot, but it's only one pic.

Never mind, just realized they don't even offer the car in red, haha, musta been a photoshop

Never seen one on the road anywhere!

The Chiaretto red or whatever its called is horrible IMHO. I did see another red on an Msport in a magazine test but thats not available in the UK.

I've never seen many red E39's either. Only a handful of metallic red and block red M sports.

Perhaps not a very popular 5 series colour.

The Chiaretto looks sick on a 7-series though. 760Li in red with black wheels would be wack.

That's dedication, considering that it costs like 15 grand to paint the thing (I think that's one someone was quoted).
