My Ride: 2009 535i
I saw this vehicle today on my way to work, and thought that the color was great, but a little unusual. It looked great on a 325i, but not sure that it would look good on an E60.
Check it out, picture quality is not the greatest.

It's - Barrique Red. Now it's a little darker and is - Barbera Red!

+1 for Barbera Red, and there are some e60's floating around in this color. I personally like this color on 3 series coupes..

you can configure a barbera red e60 on the bmwusa website....

As theXman said, this is the Amethyst gray.
I don't have the body kit or the slick splitter though, but little easier to see the color. The barbera red is an interesting color though.

Dirk - My Amethyst Gray bro. Thanks for chiming in. Love those 166s. You car looks great. Whats your mod?
.I'm salivating over the m-tech front and splitter though, what a hot look with this color. Must.resist!
