Calypso red is such a nice colour but if you can afford a candy red then thats what i'd go for.

Imola Red if you want a BMW red.
Ferrari Red if you want a bright red.

1an's is calypso. Best red by far...
Imola doesn't come on E30's on later cars like E46...

Didn't really read the post...
Agreed, Imola will make it stand out in the crowd...
Especially a two-tone

Calypso is a stunning colour, Really suits the E30 shape imo.
Kandy colours are great for show cars and pampered cars, it is a little soft for an everyday car as it scratches really easy so I have heard.
