Dang that red actually looks better than I thought it would.

I agree. I thought it would be a bit feminine of a color but it’s actually a very sophisticated color. Love the color spectrum of the M2 for 2025.

M2PDX · 09-08-2024, 11:54 PM

Kinda looks like mine.

Is that a wrap?? It’s not a 2025 right… didn’t they only release this color in 2025 and without the congac interior as an option??

We had two Grand Cherokees in a very similar color, Velvet Red Pearl. When clean & in the sun, it looked great. If it was dirty or in shade/darkness it just looked maroon.

Holy moly those 1st photos are jaggy. The color looks awesome though. Reminds me of Aventurin on the G80 M3's...

It's a '23.

It's "Clarity Coat." Essentially peelable paint.

Otto Bon Jovi · 09-14-2024, 10:16 AM

Vegas Red is a great color! 👍

BimmerFix · 09-14-2024, 12:07 PM

I'm not even a Red kinda guy but looks awesome
Definitely gives off Aventurine vibes

Wow I had no idea Vegas red was so cool. Need to see in person. If it’s this photogenic, it’s gotta be insane in person.

BradMX5 · 09-14-2024, 02:20 PM

Almost reminds me of soul red crystal.
Definitely a nice red.

NewToM · 09-14-2024, 03:19 PM

Not normally a fan of red cars, this looks much better than TR imho…

SpaceGhost · 09-14-2024, 06:52 PM

Any idea how filtered these pics are? If they are legit pics, I am sold on Vegas Red! Suits the body lines and bulges well.

M2PDX · 09-15-2024, 12:52 AM

Vegas is metallic, so in direct sun it will really pop!

BroDoze · 09-15-2024, 06:43 AM

Almost looks to have a mirror-like appearance- like some sort of wrap or something. Or, those pics/camera just happened to catch some really crazy lighting.
