That is elegant!
Oxblood is one term for it. I have a leather armchair like that.
The Lipstick Red of my Corvette was great, but did not feel high class
Stunning M5
717 HP 🤯 The green paint immediately sang loudly to me. I know it’s not for everyone. The color reminded me of my very first BMW; 2008 Deep Green Metallic 328 sports package 🍻 ...
Yep, gone are the days of those relatively light sport sedans
Their M2 is probably the last of the dying breed. But I’m guessing even that model is now at the very edge of acceptable weight for a sporty driving experience
Btw love this m5 for a daily bruiser.
All these cars suffer from tire selection at the size and weight they are. Wide low profile tires that can carry ev weight are slim pickings ...
Now that’s a proper M2!
Looking good! I’d love to own one someday. Automatic or stick? Is that color LBB?
Awesome! The only way for an M2 IMO 👍🏻
I love blue, here is my X3 M40 Phytonic Blue: ...
I loved that car
Good sound. Always able to break traction. Great color. I only got rid of it because I was able to spec a 911 which I always desired. Would have been great keeping it. But then wife would axe me
👍🏻
Dynamic is the right word Nico. Much more dynamic than this green beast it seems 😂
I would put a Tartufo interior with that color. But 5400 pounds dry??
Yikes. This one has been stocking up on Big Macs for sure!
I love green cars, but this is a porker...
...for the interior, I'd do a burgundy, dark red : )
That would be an interesting combo
My aforementioned 328 was green on beige interior. I felt it went well together
Green and beige/brown is classic...
...but I have always had a soft spot for red leather. Here is my Holy Grail of interior leather color : ) ...
That is elegant!

Yes...my grandfather had a chair like that, and I've seen shoes like that...
...the Corvette red seems too red/orange...
Good call on the Tartufo interior
One of my old BMW’s was jet black on saddle interior. An attractive combo!
To compare...
I just bought a 2001 530i manual transmission as a project car to work on with my son. The car weighs <3,400 lbs.
Will do - despite being underpowered by today's standards, the car is fun to drive
Modest weight and hydraulic steering go a long way.
Handsome machine! Surprising they put on very summer tires for a car in Massachusetts!
I guess they expect the buyer to acquire a set of winter wheels and tires. Yes, that's a reasonable solution! I like the green color too! I just wished there wasn't so much orange peel texture on the paint. I see so much orange peel on the third photo and...
Haha, good observation Patrick
Yes indeed, a set of winter wheels and tires would be mandatory around here 🙂 While my M40 was getting its oil changed and new A/S RFT’s installed, they gave me an i4 40 loaner. Overall a nice electric effort from BMW. The instant torque just smashes you ...
The regenerative braking does have different levels.
The regenerative braking does have different levels on BMW i4 models. And I can tell you, in my experience, you do get used to the deceleration and you do adapt to it by letting off the gas pedal much slower. #2, Regarding idling forward (aka creep forwar...
To be perfectly honest....
I don't like the design of their vehicles since the early 2010s at all, but that color is genuinely outstanding 🙂👌. The last BMW I had was a 2008 E90 M3, and that's likely to remain the case permanently in my case....
Filip
I knew you’d be green with envy over that color 😉 Talk about genuinely outstanding, 2008 E90 M3, now we’re talking! 🍻The closest I came to an M3 was my 2017 335. Perfect engine , but as the years went on, it just didn’t have the same level of driver engag...
I had an E46 M3, it was awesome…
and the E39 was the ultimate M5…I never had one, but, to me those were the ones…I appreciate the newer cars, but, not my cup of tea…I was a hardcore BMW guy…but, the new ones are too fancy for me…or too bling or something.
Appears much darker in the shots than the currently popular (for this car) Isle of Man green
Cannot see the interior that well but in Europe the popular combination is to pair it with the Kyalami orange leather. Certainly not for the shy 😊 As for the car - I think they have done wonders to mask the weight but it is a different prospect from the p...
Yes, that would be a bold color combo!
Despite the weight gain over the years, the M5, RS6 and E63 will always hold my interest!
It's crazy that this new M5 is 200 lbs heavier than my 2011 X5 Diesel
And the horsepower arms race among car manufacturers is getting out of hand. At least I am warming up to the exterior design of the G90 BMWs.
Just in awe
Exquisite color, gunmetal paint options really set bmw apart with other brands!
These past few weeks ...
... I've seen them everywhere around here in Belgium. As if it's a simple VW LOL. It looks good, not fantastic but not bad either, but the weight ..... nooo way, more than double the weight of an Alpine A110, a lot more than double the weight. BMW are mas...
