EB/Coral Red M235i

I've yet to see any pictures of the superman combo M235i. If I get one that is the color i'm leaning towards.

Unfortunately i've been "deployed" to Southeast asia during the M235i debut/rollout. Imagine my surprise when I see one rolling by at the base i'm at. Owned by an officer at the country i'm in. He's had it two days, already tuned it, showed me the dyno results from his phone, almost 400hp at the wheels. The dude was enthused to find a fellow Bimmer lover to show off his car to. The other U.S. troops were watching from afar as I furthered U.S. international relations through the love of cars. One of them remarked, it was like we were buddies that had known each other for years.

Anyways, thought i'd share the superman combo pics with you guys.

A custom tune, not one of the off the shelf products that we have access to in the states.

Thank you so much for the pictures and your service.

EB is my favorite exterior color, and Coral red my favorite interior color. Having said that, seeing them together aka the superman combo is hideous, complete eye sore. They clash and do not work together at all I'm afraid 😳

Agreed, but to each their own!

I love that color combo. A friend has it in a 335xi. I am getting in the M235i. The red looks brighter in pics. In person it looks amazing.

Sorry, it was a chance encounter, not likely to run into him again.

Agreed about CR in pictures. Looks more subdued/darker in person. I have mixed feelings about CR with EB. Not the ideal color combo. I don't like the current brown/tan interior that BMW offers, and I'm tired of one tone black. White and CR look great, but i'm not in love with white cars, same goes for gray..great color combo, but you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a gray car these days. First world problems.

Yea its different. But that's part of the appeal for me. Being something most people will be like "huh that's odd " and some will love it and some will hate it but that's part of the fun.

I like the superman combo here, it works in sporty cars. License plate from Dubai?

Thank you for your service and come home safely.
