Individual colors are done in batches which is less disruptive. That's why some customers wait one week and others can wait much longer.

It's doubtful that the supplier (BASF?) cannot provide the paint. The reason could be much simpler - insufficient number of orders to schedule a batch of cars to be built and painted. It's more profitable to keep building cars with standard colors.
