I think it looks good. Looking to buy a 335i myself but am leaning towards the SGM exterior. I love the red (coral?) interior though....go for it!

My exterior is that color...It's not my favorite out of BMW's color options, but it's grown on me. I'm not sure if I like that color combo though.

It looks like poop. That exterior color screams 'I found a deal and couldn't wait/afford to get what I really wanted .. oh, I also might be neutered'

I love the coral red but in no way shape or form does it go with the exterior. It reminds me of a mullet, business outside and party in the inside. It just doesn't work.

Of course that is my opinion which you asked for.

No one has said anything negative about the color, but

is correct in terms of the price paid for it, haha. I'm not the one who bought it and I'm not a guy, so no complaints whatsoever

My GOD man...you guys really need to learn to own it...I can't blv I'm seeing this (is this ok...you make it ok, you don't ask for anyone else's input)

Hell...it don't matter if your BMW is PINK -- you drive it like a man. You get out with your head held high, and you overtake people as would in any other vehicle.

Own it...this doesn't just apply to cars. If you put whatever you do, out there with confidence, people will respect that.

And if they don't...you should have the balls to not care.


IMO, that colour is a beaut...I like the unique of the gold/brown...looks fine.


And about it looking like a deal -- to all those who have AW; you pay 1 K less for that colour; I've always thought (this used to hold true in the 90's) that anyone with a white car did so because they didn't want to pay for the paint upgarde. Nowadays, white is popular, but before thats how it was.

Its a 335i, its a 3 series -- you're not going to get much status anyways with it, unless you're in your 20's.

Exterior seems to be the color a professional would pick, Interior however screams out sporty... In other words, with that exterior I would automatically assume that a 45 year old is driving the car, but the enterior is more like 25 - 30 year old guy would choose.
They both are good, but not sure if they look good together. Red interior would look good on black, white or sparkling graphite exterior. Black or tan interior will look good on that Gold/beigh exterior you got. But that Combo isn't too bad. It all depends on if you feel okay with it. But again you wouldn't be asking this question if you were 100% about the color combo.
This opinion is coming from a professional Designer btw.

If you tint the shit out of the windows, it would look just fine. I'm not a fan of that combo when you can see the color of the interior from the exterior. But, then again, it's just my opinion, and so is every other post in here. Don't let our opinions dictate what you drive.
