Is This Why BMW Doesn't Make Red F10's?

What's most disturbing about this thread is that 8% of people never wash their cars. 11% frequency for black is mildly upsetting. Irene hates birds.

Interesting read though, my first car was red; it is and will be my only red car. But not for the reason this thread suggests.

I was wondering why they don't sell a red F10 also. Haven't noticed any higher frequency of bird crap

I will say that Vermillion Red is quite a rare color and I almost never see BMWs in red, unless they are E90s.
