Current US M3 CS production breakdown by color (April '18)
Chatted with the dealer today...
Current color breakdown of the M3CS 128 San Marino Blue 83 Alpine White (why? people, why?) 78 BSM (see above) 103 Lime Rock 61 Frozen Blue All status 102, so still changeable (except for Lime Rock, as that is sold out) No production slots available past May 2018. He suspects (as rumored) that will be the EOP of the M3 and that the CS, if built after that, will get an exception from the new emissions as the production is very low.

Numbers are all from the BMW system. Dealer thought 463 was total and did not know why 10 were missing. In short, the numbers are what they are. You can ask your dealer to confirm.

I believe that all of the cars are spec'ed by BMW and the spec isn't changeable. Info from a UK forum member who has one on order. His dealer had to search through the system to find one which was closest to the spec. he wanted.

Anyone know if dealers in the US can see incoming cars assigned to dealerships?

The BMW Canada documentation indicates that LRG and FDB are both each limited to 20% of the production volume. The numbers in the OP are consistent with this.

Alpine White is one of the only "Free" colors you can get on a BMW (primer if you will ). Jet Black was the other but I have not seen that for a while. Most metallic colors in the US are a $550 up charge (from memory). So Alpine White is the most popular color on BMWs - because when you are shopping for a 320/330 $550 is a lot of money. Now on the CS, you get the option of three colors that are known as Individual Colors. Those colors, well the San Marino Blue and Lime Rock, are normally a $5,200 up charge (by memory here) in the US. So on the CS, you can get a color that is VERY rare and normally $5,200 for free. So that's where the why comes from.
