Rare color f10

top ramen · 03-28-2019, 02:45 PM

Would like to share this with you guys because I thought this was interesting. Was searching through my local craigslist and found some rare factory color F10 that I haven't seen before. A Imola Red and a Mojave brown F10. The Mojave brown looks more like Havana brown to me.

What are you thoughts of the colors? Please share some photos of your car if you think you have a rare factory color f10.

there's a few members who posted pictures of their Mojave F10's here but I've never seen the imola red

BigKutta · 03-28-2019, 02:52 PM

The red one is an M5 too!!!!

Just saw that M5 badge, lol. M5 badge adds 50hp and better traction.

Imola doesn't look good on F10 IMO. Way nicer looking on the E39. Might look better without the chrome :shrug:

TTG · 03-28-2019, 04:53 PM

Red one is interesting. Someone paid $5K to get an individual color and did not chose any other desirable options.

The least I would of done is to order MSport.

That Imola red color is absolutely gorgeous on the F10!!! Why wasn't this a regular color option?

Silverfleet · 03-29-2019, 10:41 AM

Looks more hellrot to me. Imola is a bit darker.

mness · 03-29-2019, 11:20 AM

The red one is a 535i, not an M5 despite the obviously fake badge. VIN decoder shows the color as HELLROT not Imola.

Where did you get the VIN as it is not listed?

Does it show it as individual paint as any shade of red was not part of standard offering in 2013 if I recall it correctly.

mness did you request the dealer for the vin? Post up the vin decoder.

Probably built for a chick who loves red. Can't picture a dude riding in this. Red is not for me but I think this car would look better in Msport package. Throw on a black front lip, vinyl wrap the top black, black side skirt extension and quad diffuser.

Some photos of mine here: https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhDB7EJ68FIlgcR0alZ-d1hgb54XAA

The colour is Amazonite Silver. There are absolutely loads of BMWs in the UK but this is the only one I've seen in this colour.

The overall style blend may not suit you all but it did me as I'm an old git!

Is that just a lighter silver than glacier silver? Looks good!

That's a beauty!

Similar to Cashmere Silver but not quite the same.

Its a shade between silver and pale green (depending on light). Unfortunately the vehicle registration document lists it as beige which caused the cops to pull me recently when I was driving through a less salubrious part of London.

Sounds very nice

I don't get that colour law you guys have. Why would anyone care what colour your car is/was? Sounds like overreaching and over-restrictive to me! What ever happened to personal freedoms? It's just a car colour, for cryin' out loud!!! maybe they should focus on REAL criminals!

Don't get us going on that! Looking at the news over here, stabbings are at the highest ever rates in London and Birmingham but the police are more interested in arresting people who have mis-gendered someone. Most police forces don't investigate home break-ins or vehicle theft. It's mad. But I've gone off topic.

paul223 · 03-31-2019, 04:35 PM

I have one. Did not know it is a rare color.

top ramen · 03-31-2019, 08:15 PM

Tmarshall57- that's a awesome color, love it. Looks like some kind of pearl. What's the paint code? I never heard about the color law. What happens if the cop was color blind and issue you a ticket.

Paul223- NICE. Are those stock riims? They looks good.
