Red 850i Coupe

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
The 8 Series configurators from Belgium, Italy and the UK show a very limited color selection, and red is missing. IMO, the standard (non M-Sport) 8 Series design is cleaner and more closely resembles the stunning 8 Series Concept from 2017. Here is the Std 8 in red, hope they add Vermilion Red to the palette next year, the same color the 2012 6 Series Coupe was introduced in...

I agree. The front bumper's 'fins' in particular more closely resemble the concept's and gives it a more 'shark' like appearance.

Thanks for posting this chucknix

Individual Red Option for US 2019 M850i

Just found out the US model 2019 M850i will offer an Individual only color of Aventurine Red, a darker burgundy as shown on this 7 series. Since it appears there may never be a base model or 6-cyl option in the US, we will have to wait for potential V12 860i and Alpina models to possibly access the cleaner front & rear fascia designs of the 840d.

The M8 will offer an exclusive Red. called Motegi Red. Named after the Japanese race track as per the M philosophy.
I know someobody who went to order exclusive through BMW Individual catalog but there is a constraint applied as it is reserved for a new production vehicle so it will not be authorised.

Aventurine Red would suit the standard 840d Coupe but possibly to regal for the M850i.
