This E46 330Ci Convertible has already found a new home, but we wanted to bring back this older video from Shooting Brake for one standout reason: the color. Finished in BMW Individual Ruby Red Metallic (rubinrot; metallic; S03; BMW), this spec is a rare sight and suits the E46 perfectly. Paired with a two-tone black and red Nappa leather interior, it gives the whole build a bespoke feel. The BMW Individual door sill is one of those rare options we don’t see often, and it adds just the right detail to set this car apart. Rare, tasteful, and aging with grace. Scott gives a quick walkaround and drive, showing off just how timeless and sorted this build still feels today.
Color Check – Ruby Red Metallic (rubinrot; metallic; S03; BMW)
Ruby Red Metallic is one of those low-production BMW Individual colors that rarely shows up, but when it does, it has our full attention. It’s since been modernized as Ruby Red II Pearl Effect Metallic, now available through the BMW Individual program. Always exciting to spot the original in the wild. It’s a rich, deep red, think cherry wine, with a fine metallic finish that comes alive in the sunlight.
