M in particular has strongly been pushing individual colors the last few years. Look at how many events and public demos have them.

I have someone...they CAN help...however, I am dealing with a sales manager who won't even tell me the name of the guy he emailed the build to, so that my internal guy can walk it through the system.
Unfortunately, the art of salesmanship goes out the window when you have a very early and highly-sought-after G80 allocation. I am speaking to the owner of the dealership, who a mutual friend put me in touch with, to rectify this.
