X3M - Toronto Red metallic

Not seen many photos (if at all?) of the X3M in red so here are some pics courtesy of Williams BMW who have just taken delivery of their Toronto Red Metallic X3MC.

Loves this color, looks burgundy red in the pics above. In real life, it looks orangey/red in the sunlight.

Likewise..... I'm thinking that particular shade of F97 should come with a factory installed ALPS. It screams, "Laze me, please."

Wow these photos look pink to me

I have seen some that look bright red, others look dull red...

Wonder how this compares to past reds/oranges like Sakhir and Melbourne.

If it's orange/red maybe it would be okay with Sakhir interior.

It is very Orange/ Red. It almost looks like Rosso Corsa Red from Ferrari but more Orange. It is not for the timid, which is precisely why I specced it for our stripper build. One of the nicest reds Bmw has ever offered imo, alongside
hellrot red. It looks nothing like the pinkish/burgundy metallic effect going on in the pics above. It looks like a flat paint color in real life, even though it’s metallic.

Agree with Mfan007. Toronto red definitely on the orange side and relatively flat appearing, at least in direct sunlight.

It looks just like the pictures you posted, just a little more orange sometimes depending on lighting conditions.

I think the pics are edited hard so they appeared pinkish ... The original color is so red

Thanks for sharing this color ... looking forward to seeing it first before judging it

I wonder if they're going to include this as a standard color on the G8x M siblings, too.
