For those interested in the Individual M5, below is a response from BMW. I have gone back through my dealer as well but it looks like I may have to settle for black sapphire :grrrrr: . Will keep you posted if anything changes.

Dear Mr. ####### :
Thank you for contacting BMW of North America, LLC regarding the BMW M5. We
appreciate your interest in purchasing this exciting new model.
We are sorry to hear of your disappointinment with the color choices on the M5
in the United States market. Unfortunately, the Individual program you are

available in the near future.

center. They can contact internal regional sources to inquire about special
order options in the model you select. Our BMW centers control all aspects of
their sales transactions, and they are in the best position to assist with your
customization request. Please stay in touch with us through our website,
