Yes it does. Looks fantastic.

Here's another Imola Red Individual F10 for comparison.

Very nice. Testament to the lines of the car. After all, as they say, fat girls should never wear red...

I find this to be comparatively the least fitting color for M5 F10. According to Beauty Salon on the picture the owner is a woman too, and all due respect but considering widely accepted image and manly aura of M5 - it's possibly the least fitting BMW for a woman.

What?! You serious? Just because there is a Beauty Salon sign you conclude it must be a woman driving it?!?!? Also says health club, hotel, restaurant BTW. For all you know it's a hunky dude bench pressing 500lbs, pretty immature way to look at it.

Must be a CZ vs. Slovakia beef you got going, just settle it over a hockey game or something, would ya... LOL

Could be a dude picking up his gf or wife. Personally I find women attractive who drive high performance cars. My type of girl if indeed the driver is a lady.

Imola red was one of my favorite colors for the E39 M5 and I bet it will look every bit as stunning on the F10 M5. I would love to see more photos of this beast.

I've seen my share of pink X6M, M3s and M6s bought by sponsors and driven by young girls who damage bumpers and wheels when parking tendency I don't see suitable for the ///M brand which is formed and historically widely accepted. I could be wrong of course, just assuming from what I've seen

Commercialization aside, this is pretty much a pink M5

Isn't this the Imola Red? Certainly used to be darker and more red than pink, or I'm color blind

Agreed; they are not the same.

I also think it's imola and I really like it!
Imola red changes a lot depending on lighting and considering the quality of cameras and monitor settings it can look like anything from pink to a more red wine type of red.

Would love to see more pictures!

That's not Imola Red
Is Crimson Red
Imola is more dark red-brown
Crimson more lighter red-pink

In my early days, I used to only drive Alfa's. So no doubt, love the color on any car.

take a look at this red M Performance edition (i think they are only available in UK, 30 in each colour: frozen blue, red and white), but only red one is originally wrapped in transparent matt and this guy took the matt off! is it same colour or its japan red?

IMO looks INSANE

visually, it's stunning in red. this is actually red with sakhir interior, a lot of color there. having driven a red bmw loaner once, i would not get a red car myself. i felt like a cop magnet.
