Price wise this was 7.5k aud extra, actually was expecting more around 12 considering the work involved by bmw, happy with the result for a 1/1 paint 👌

Thank you for that info. From what I understand, once the color has been done at least once, BMW adds it to the individual color palette.

Correct. Anyone else that orders if from here will now pay the $4,500.

I love my Dravit Gray. My second choice would be IOMG with a Tartufo interior.

I currently have Individual Twilight Purple with full Kyalami Orange Interior.

If I couldnt do this color combo I would do
Individual Wilberry with Full Fjord Blue or Ivory White interior!

I currently am next in line at my dealership for an allocation so I still have time to change. Currently have IOMG with Tartufo, but am considering Skyscraper Grey with Fjord Blue. I’d love to do Dakar yellow though, wife said no to that 😂

I've got Portimao and absolutely love it and would likely order the same spec again but I also love the G82 in skyscraper grey and would buy one.

I’ve had mineral white on my E93 M3 and I loved it. I wanted frozen white this time for my G83 M4 Comp but they didn’t have any with Red interior so I settled with Alpine White and wow I fell in love.

Previous BMW was alpine white which is fantastic on the GX series. I’m also really enjoying my BGM and have zero regrets.

I'm so happy and I believe I've nailed it. BSM with full ppf in stealth with plastic in gloss. I think it's the best looking M3 ever. Lol.

I do like some others but nothing comes close to mine. Not even close for me.

Stealth fighter out....

Every BMW I have had since 2001 has been black. I really wanted something different and striking so I went with Sao Paolo yellow. If I were to go with an Individual color I may have chosen Signal green or a purple.

22 months after delivery, I still have no regrets about Portimao over Tartufo, and I still get lots of comments about it.

I would order another Atlantis Metallic. Love how the color changes in different lighting. It’s definitely a head turner.
