Alot of strong opinions...ha ha. I will have to go see Vegas Red in person I guess. Alpine white is still a classic and looks clean. I would love some other bright colors to choose from. Would have definitely done Toronto Red if it were available on 25 MY.

I mean, the new Toyota Camry is pretty much Vegas Red. I saw a minivan with Vegas Red on it the other day. You're going to blend in no matter what. Color is heavily subjective tho, it's not something anyone should let someone else choose for them.

Very true.
I opted for a bright green because in my mind I was like hey that's a color I never see...
Now I see it constantly every day

There are far more white & grey vehicles on the road than anything else. I have yet to see a pack of red cars driving down the road at any given time where another red car would blend in. :

Agree one needs to choose the color (or lack of color) they prefer.

Picking up a 2025 i4 M50 next week in Vegas Red with Cognac interior. It is a beautiful color 👍

Great color, glad you're so happy with it! Thanks for sharing. Can we see the interior you paired it with? Maybe a shot looking in with the window rolled down so we can see the interior and exterior colors together? Looks like you went with the blue stitching; a bold move but potentially amazing. I have it configured with the red-trimmed interior, which seems like a natural choice at first blush, but I am a little worried about too much red or the wrong shade of red.

Great color! It's too bad they dropped the cognac interior because it would look so good with it on the M2 as well.

2025 M2 Vegas red walk around by BMW of Mountain View Geniuses

BMW of Mountain View Geniuses did a full walk around showing off the Vegas red.

Personally I'm really liking how this color looks on the M2 and the deep contrast between the highlights and shadows. I think it shows off the car's styling well.

Watch it here:

Can someone show some pics of it on an overcast day without changing the saturation in post? I remember it looking extremely muddy for a red colour

This is one of the best reds I’ve seen from BMW! This and portimao blue have really changed my opinion of the G87 aesthetics. Nice to see so many color options compared to the F87 (although I still love my Sunset Orange M2C after 5+ years).

Excellent color here & I like the new BMW of MV intro footage you used. Those HD drones are well worth it for better production & HQ footage. I fully agree this car is a much better value then the M4. No offense BMW.
