          What's the difference between Imola Red I and Imola Red II?

          Now they're planning to bring out Imola Red III and I still don't see any difference!

          By the way, what's the difference between Alpine White I and Alpine White II?

          Can somebody please explain this?!

          perhaps the difference is between the current water based paints and the previous solvent based paints, without a real difference in actual color? Just a guess.

          I do not know the difference between Imola Red I and II. From my experience, it would be a slight change in the toner composition, and would most likely not be a change in red, but a change in black toner compostion.

          There are actually five different shades of Alpine White. Alpine I is sort of creamish; a VERY slight tint of "cream." Alpine White II has a lot more of pure white toner.

          This is for E34 M5s, but you might find it interesting:
