If this color would have been available when I ordered my car I think I would have gotten instead of the black. It looks awesome!

I have had my c63s cardinal red 2016 for 20 months. In fact mine can be found in the internet as a background for vorsteiner. Iamted7 did the photo shoot over a year ago. Look at my album

Well the color is available has been since 2015. It's designo so I think he is just misinformed.

you should black out the grille to go with the black bumper trim. itll look so much more aggressive but just my opinion of courseOriginally Posted by Hyacinthc63Cpe

Glad to see its being taken care of .Not sure how long ceramic coating lasts, but I had the front ppf'd and the full car ceramic coated, including the wheels..
You have a great car there. I have sold a couple of cars that I have regreted, one was a SSG ACR Viper, the other was this one.

If you are ever in Vancouver you are welcome to come take her on a track! You built a beautiful machine. All the mods you put on are still on the car. I just had the car put back to stock height as she scrapes in my parkade and she deserves better. I just picked her up last Sunday. The ppf is still like new. Would you happen to have an options list for this car? It is such a unique build.

Too much maroon in the coloring. I’m a fan of Imola Red under the BMW brand and Carmine Red under the Porsche marquee. And Torch Red under the Blue Oval.
