Aventurin Red

shahoian · 12-23-2021, 05:49 PM

After mulling over an M40i for late March delivery at the Perfomance Center, I noticed they were going to offer Aventurin Red starting this month. So we went with that, and are pairing it with the Mocha interior.

Of course today I find out the thing might be built and ready end of January--long before our trip takes us to South Carolina.......

Was also told the Shadowline and Harmon Kardon were back to being available. Other than that, getting basically everything there is to get. Absent the M Sport diff. For one of the race or track cars, sure. Not this.

Interested to see other pictures of a 22 X3 with that color. I saw one online and just don't think it vibes at all

Found one. Think it actually works better as more of a luxury look

kscarrol · 12-23-2021, 07:07 PM

I like it but definitely would look better with the shadow line trim and the body color trim around the wheel wells.

jacko15 · 12-23-2021, 09:22 PM

That looks like a 30i if I'm not mistaken. Would love to see an M40i in Aventurin Red, with extended shadowline trim. It seems that might be available again, but not on the build site. Also, on the build site you can't choose the M Sport package with this color on the 30i. I wonder why.

I think it will look really mean with the extended shadowline…

"Mean" as in aggressive in an understated, classy, way….

shahoian · 03-05-2022, 03:20 PM

Well we picked up the car at the factory a couple of weeks ago, and have made it home to California. Nearly 4500 miles on the return. (7000 miles total, as we drove there with our new puppy.)

Congrats! Looks beautiful.

keithguido · 03-05-2022, 06:30 PM

LOVELY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

kscarrol · 03-05-2022, 09:15 PM

Outstanding! Wish this color was available when I ordered my car…

Yellowmattei · 03-06-2022, 08:54 AM

Great looking car! I love my Carbon Black, but I would have ordered that color if it had been available when I ordered my car! Congrats!!

nyquistcondition · 03-06-2022, 10:34 AM

Way way way better with shadow line. Jealous! Looks amazing- enjoy!

Topdwnz · 03-06-2022, 12:12 PM

Absolutely beautiful. The shadowline really makes the difference. Congrats!

Bimmerforlife · 03-06-2022, 01:03 PM

It looks like a burgundy color. I like it!!
How much extra for this color?

So did you get the HK?
Did the drivers seat come with electric side bolstering button and lumbar button?

sbt007 · 03-07-2022, 11:56 AM

This color is a great match for the extended shadow line. Looks great.

Tricky401 · 03-07-2022, 01:22 PM

I really want to see this on an x3m comp

dtox9 · 03-07-2022, 01:27 PM

Congrats - GREAT color (and options) !

mikeym40 · 03-07-2022, 02:01 PM

Yes, I think we would have held off if it didn't come back available.

Checked every box, except the differential and rear seat heating.

And then there was the trailer hitch that wasn't available at the time....... The sales guy said we could reorder with it (had a 1-15 build slot), but we'd lose the Harmon Kardon. Didn't take long to install a hitch on the '11; doubt this one is more involved.

Yes it's a very good color, up there with some individual color options.

Valleybull · 06-21-2022, 08:41 PM

Received this last week, absolutely love it.

mbed · 06-21-2022, 11:46 PM

Congrats 👍🏼
Amazing, such a good color. The back looks aggressive in red. These 21” wheels are one of their best ones offered.
