Expecting to take delivery of a 2022 R18C in red (called vermelho "mars" metal here in Portugal) soon. Very curious to see it in metal. So far only press shots of R18's in that colour available. Anyone got theirs yet and if so, please share impressions and pics!

It is the same red that they have used on the RT and the K16 for years now. It has an orange-ish lean in the flesh and is absolutely beautiful.
 
I can't wait to see it, The Manhattan Metallic Matte looks very Close to my B in Kalamatta....

Vermelho just means red in Portuguese, perto - black, verde - green, azul - blue.
Fala Portugese muito bom, e vivido e trabalho em Brasil muito anos.
Meu esposa e filas la agora.
No necessario pensa voce alguma coise muito especial.
 
Eu falo português tambem but that was not the question ;) Just send an email to the dealer trying to get a date of delivery (doubt if they know it either) and de-kitting my GSA for the trade.
 
For what its worth let the people know that the delivery of my 2022 R18C has been pushed back to mid March..
 
Same old story right now, such a shame but you'll have it soon enough for the summer
 
I'd also seriously considered the red, especially with the white pin stripe option, but wanted to see it in person as I was hoping it might look a bit like an old R69.

I was also told by my dealer that the 2022s were delayed due to a lack of parts. I was given a great deal on a 2021 rather than wait for the 2022s.

Is that your R69S? I am looking for the chrome rings under the BMW emblems
