BMW had a pretty good go at trying to convince the world Pink was Red and gave up and actually produced a 'Red' bike a couple of years later.

Oh what a shame. I have to hurry up and type this before I hurl.

Back to DDP, does anyone but Rick own this color? It's not really that bad in person.

The new red is or was definately very nice. I was about to buy a red bike instead of the silver I currently own. Silver had far less miles.

If they did, do you think they'd admit it on this forum?

Piedmont Red is the only red BMW has that interests me.
