Imola has a very wide range depending on the light. It's a pretty interesting color - was my 2nd choice! If I ever get another E46 M3 itll definitely be imola

if it's "Radience Red" it's a BMW individual option

Not sure if it is Imola, looks darker...check these pics. Maybe their internet boy photochopped it darker. See pics below of X5 in question and 3 other imola, one with aero kit, another with tints, and a thrid one but all real imola pics in low light or night.

You're comparing shade pictures with direct sunlight pictures. Plus it looks to me like the color was adjusted/photoshopped in all of those pictures.

I believe it's Imola.

I am voting that it is NOT Imola red. Even if it is in the shade, looks darker.

I am just trying to show how imola looks in shade as someone pointed that these pics are taken in shade. Imola does not look that dark in shade. I also believe its imola but photochopped by a rookie. Door frame color looks lighter. And there is no radience red in BMW colors list I have for that year.
