Individual color anyone?

swiss_cornholio · 01-17-2008, 07:30 AM

Soon my spec will be frozen. So far I was pretty sure Alpine White is the only way to go. Now I'm wondering if I'm missing something form the individual range. Does anyone of you consider to get the E92 coupe in an individual color?

I'd go Moonstone, it's a very light colour, having seen it on a car I think it will look just as good as AW. Do not trust the colour samples of Moonstone though, they do not do it justice, you have to see it on a car.

Oh, and I'd also go extended Palladium with the Individual Piano Black trim.

I was considering ruby black, but the additional cost has put me off as my options are spiralling out of control.

Will definetly get individual piano black trim.

Is it correct that anything ordered from the indvidual range will add 6 weeks to your delivery time?

Paint will add 4-6 weeks but trim shouldn't make much difference I was told.

My dealer told me that even the trim would add a month to the wait. I am seriously condidering piano black with or without inlay. It costs about 800 euro but the delay is slightly offputing. Anyone got any pictures...

Have a look at the catologue in this thread. Good pics of the trim in there.

What do you mean with or without inlay?

So pissed I got to buy a 7-series to get the individual colors. Well, here is to my M3 and 750Li individual with that deep blue exterior, white leather and piano black trim

The piano black has a version with a silver line (inlay) across the top.

I can't take any more delays. It already takes way too long until I get DCT. It's Alpine White / Palladium Silver then...
