Assuming you were referring to the red car (though could be the yellow one above too )

Great colour. Profile looks fantastic, front end could do with some attention.

She's on interim suspension - oem damper and eibach pro springs. Just picked up a set of KW Clubsports which will be setup properly.

Not my car but one i saw in thorpe park car park this week.
The stick on carbon fibre was full of air bubbles and peeling in places also it had a huge ironing board spoiler and a piece of trim hanging off on the front bumper.Most likely a poverty spec 318 or something.

Wow that looks fantastic!

The colour looks too dark for Imola, but maybe you could put us right?

My Imola 325ti is this colour:-



I wondered about an E46 M3, but didn't have enough brave pills so I bought a Z4C instead!

Enjoy your M3!

[LaSource]

Thanks for the warm reception.

I guess I may have pressed one too many post processing buttons
...it is probably looking a shade darker than it is....though I would suggest your pic is looking a shade lighter...so somewhere in between the two!

Here is another pic looking lighter...

That just looks Red to me, every Imola I have seen is more like the M3 above

Finally got my 335i. Manual and Msport

Yeah unless everyone photoshops their Imola cars that looks like plain old red or perhaps it needs a good machine polish?

I thought the M3 was Imola, no photo tricks, cos it made me think of my E46; unedited pic from last week

[robbiekhan]

Imola red is a great colour!

When the time comes to sell the e30 this is exactly what I have in mind.

Thanks. Of course, I am biased, but I do think the E46 is taking the mantle of what is envisioned when you think Em-Three. Not taking anything away from the original E30 road racer which has its own unique iconic place but for most people has become a collectors car more than a car to be used in anger on road and track.
...Agree the newer cars aren't doing it yet for me...but that can change over time. I think the latest M4 can look mean...but heavy as well!

Last weekend the Imola Red was in close proximity to a red E30 Evo Sport...the different shades of red were clashing a bit...to my biased eyes I did prefer the darker shade of red

Who is brave enough?

about this, how much is ball park for a full repaint ?

Note: I would not even bid half of the Asked price.

That Coupe looks fairly close to my 325ti in colour - but Imola Red certainly seems to be a bit variable!

Still I like all of the variations!

At least they are a colour, unlike most of their contemporaries!

I just hope my Z4C is accepted as being Montego Blue!

I quite like it. But it is too expensive and I definitely dont need another car ... right now.

Current car 120d coupe (bought in February) but I should have gone auto for my commute.

Over an hour each way across one of the most congested parts of the South East (coupled with a not very nice gear change I must say) means ive chopped it in for;

An automatic aubergine (325d) I wasnt sure af first but the colour is growing on me now!
