Just search on Google "blue BMW drivers" and hundreds of articles will pop up about jerks, @ss6oles, etc.
In the meantime I would REALLY appreciate if BMW will come up with some beautiful colors. Nothing against blue but this brand truly overplayed it. Brown, green, violet, red's, yellows, and metallic in between are just as beautiful.

BMW has a history of some great browns, greens, reds, violets and yellows. They can't help it if they aren't optioned as much as the blues. Face it, most BMW buyers even considering a bold color/M car/M sport car are men. Most men cannot step out of the Black/Gray/White/Silver box. Those that do venture out are relatively safe with a blue. Goes like this:
Guy sees a cool color on this board and compliments the owner. Guy heads down to his local dealer with Wife/SO.
Guy: I saw a really cool (red/purple/orange/green/yellow) individual M online.
Dealer: We can order that. So, you'll have one of those then?
Guy: No, just black.
Dealer: We sold the last black one. I have a (then-current shade of) blue one available.
Guy: Eh, honey what do you think?
Wife/SO: It's kinda bright.
Dealer: Oooh, we have an Austin Yellow one too.
Wife's face:
Guy: We'll take the blue.
