Bought my first BMW today

Indecision · 06-08-2013, 04:51 AM

Hey everyone, put down a deposit on my first BMW today! A 2006 E90 320i with the M Sport package in Imola Red

It's getting serviced on Tuesday and then i'm taking it down the south coast for a long drive, I can't wait.

Glad to finally be part of the club!

Ahhh Imola Red. Paint the wheels black and lower the car an inch or two...

Nice car! The red works well with the Msport kit.

Good point. Just did some research and it shows Imola Red never came to Australia on the e90s..

It does look like Crimson Red.

OP: plug your vin into this and it should reveal what colour you have. http://www.rubmw.ru/vincode/eng/

Thanks for link - didn't know this tool existed! According to that site the colour is Japanrot (Electric Red) not Imola Red. The more you know!
