That looks more like Crimson Red. We've got an E88 in Sedona Red and looks very different than the photos in the ad.

That's not Sedona, unless they have really mucked up the colours in the photo. I have seen red in 135i's before, perhaps crimson, so they do exist.

I actually thought there was 3 non metallic colours available for the 135. AW / Black / Red.

Yeh I know, I thought you were talking about the current colours. I've seen a CR before, looked like a fire engine.

It was in the states too. But you could only have Sedona on the coupe.

The day I found out every country except the US could har it on the vert too is the day I threw an awesome hissey-fit

There was a forum member going around in a crimson red 135i here in Melbourne. He was looking to sell his car, so perhaps it's old car. Definitely not sedona red, it looked fantastic in person.

Ha sorry mate. iPhones - fat fingers - and a long day at work are a poor combination!

I've seen Sedona verts in Europe. Weird.
