Hey guys, my dealership recently received an F90 in Indianapolis red. Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe this is 1 of 1 in the world at the moment. Anyhow, the car was ordered by a customer who I believe has an E60 in the same color. At the last second he cancelled, so we now have this beauty sitting in our showroom!
It's got the silver stone full leather interior and style 706s in black. The best way I can describe the exterior color is to say that it's basically a clear coated first edition (frozen dark red metallic). Let me know what you guys think! Enjoy! Sorry for the lo res pics, I took them on my iPhone.

Edit: I've just updated the post with a photo of the window sticker as some of you were requesting it.

Haha - I feel like you guys forgot just how much of a bust Indianapolis red was on the e60 M5. It was a Horrible color then, horrible color now.

I dunno. I really hated it on the E60, but for some reason it looks good here.

Favorite color on the F90 is Sakhir Orange for some reason. I hate it on the M3 but for some reason it just works on the M5. Thinking to order a comp package in SO in a year...

Nice color, but would look a lot better with the badge, grille, and all chrome elements blacked out.

I completely agree Quickburn. Now that I have decided to order the Competition edition my color choices have changed again. With all of the black accents, comp wheels, black badge, rear bumper, etc. I don't think "classy" colors; i.e. Donington work as well. The more I look at the Comp edition the more I like bright colors. I visited my dealer and saw a black sapphire with black wheels and it just looked boring to me. This color decision has become a nightmare for me..

Yeah I think because of how sedate the styling of the car is it makes sense to go a little more flashy with the exterior to make it feel special compared to a 5 series. A color no other 5 would come in would work best.

I was obviously an Indy Red lover - still am. I do think there could have been better reds offered for the E60, and at least A red for the F90.

Biased towards the color, and think it suits the F90 better than the E60.

Not my personal taste, but cool color for what it is. I wonder if the call it Indy Red, because it's a redish brick color, hence the "Brickyard".

I'm just not a huge fan of this color to begin with. Maybe under direct sunlight it changes the depth a bit, but overall I'm not a fan
