XM Label Red Spotted on Tail of the Dragon

CellExpert · 03-19-2023, 11:28 AM

Featured on BIMMERPOST.com

Saw these yesterday while out. Didn’t snag any picture but found 129photos.com grabbed some. Red around the frame and different wheels.

Interesting. If the label red version comes with different paint color selection than frozen black and more performance, I’m all in. I just don’t want a matte or frozen finish as a daily driver

patrikr · 03-19-2023, 10:38 PM

Matte/frozen isn’t bad for a daily as long as you do a full PPF. I have it on my 760 with ceramic coating end it’s very easy to keep clean. The PPF+ceramic adds $8-10k to the purchase price tho which sucks…

In one of the review videos, the PM for the project at BMW said it’s actually Frozen Carbon Black in the Label Red pics.

Yes, we've only heard frozen carbon black in the teasers up to now but with this picture one can hope.... I clearly see the red stripe...

Oh look, the mountain’s climbing the mountain

MackSea70 · 03-22-2023, 02:06 PM

Nope. Still ugly. Still weighs 6k.

Hoping these are just test mules for the new m5 red label power train.

hufington · 03-22-2023, 02:16 PM

No matter what power train and suspension configuration, you will still feel the enormous weight each time you brake or drive into a curve.

Ceramic brakes are a must, which then add 10k to the price and squeak driving around town.

Having been to the Dragon, these are "not at home" there.

3 hour drive from Spartanburg to the Dragon.

Red Label sounds so... tacky.

Erie Von Otto · 03-22-2023, 04:28 PM

Looks like a Hyundai or Nissan…

These tanks really have no business wearing an M badge.

Why insult their designers. Their stuff has more cohesion than this thing.

Let’s call it what it is. A modern day Pontiac aztek

At least the g80 owners are finally not the brunt of bmw design hate.

Bimmerfun82 · 03-22-2023, 06:43 PM

Tail of the dragon isn’t a place I thought you’d see this thing… 6100 pounds on tight turns, must have been a bit nauseating

GOLFFRR · 03-23-2023, 07:41 AM

These things are so ugly its comical. The front is the only angle that is somewhat decent looking. The rear looks like an inflated beetle.
