It is on the order sheets in Canada, not sure if limited to ventilated seats or not. I'll probably find out in ~45 minutes

Hi, any luck? I am having my dealer double checking as well. I told them on the official ordering guide (North America), it clearly stated the CF Bucket only cannot be ordered with Tartufo - so I would expect it can be ordered with any other colors like Fiona, Ivory and Fjord.

Well, I'm going with Ultimate but ventilated seats, rather than the buckets, in Fjord blue. Looks like you can't get Tartufo and buckets, just need to trace through the order sheets to confirm:

VBTQ Tartufo Full Merino Leather
VBTQ and ZUP requires ordering 453
VBTQ cannot be ordered with 48C or ZBN

In the ZUP (ultimate package):
453 Ventilated Seats

Ready for more bad news?

48C M Carbon Bucket Seats
Included in package
48C and ZPP will delete 453 from the order
48C will delete STD or 100% equipment 488 and 712

ZBN M Carbon Package

488 Lumbar Support
712 M Sport Seats

Yea... those were what I got from the ordering guide as well. So, what color exterior did you order with the Fjord? I am going with Brooklyn Gray. I was going to go with Mexico and Ivory White but just don't want to deal with the further delay, plus, not a big deal, but it would lose the Lane Change Assistance as well.

Portimao blue. I only buy blue cars, it's a personality flaw. M3 Comp xDrive, sticking with the black 826s.

It'll be blue, black, and carbon fibre on all the things.

I ordered fjord for my FDG. But, I think fjord would go great with grey, white, black and among other colors.

I think this would look great with the Frozen Brilliant White or Brooklyn Grey.

Nah.

The only two I considered at the time of ordering were Silverstone and Tartufo. The fact that Tartufo can't be had in the carbon buckets made it an easy choice then.

There are some on here that have gone with Twilight Purple and KO. I'm anxiously awaiting their delivery to see what that combo looks like.

Just sharing my experience; certain exterior and interior colors devalue cars when it come to trade-in. IMHO, blue doesn't really go with any exterior color combo. When it comes to interior, it makes the car look dark inside.

What? Blue goes with many exterior colors. What does black interior make the inside look like? I might be biased though ;P

You right about black interior; making dark as well.

That's why 90% of all my cars had light interior.

I think it's a lot harder to pair blue interior with most exterior colours. Unless, it's blue on blue. I just share my experience, so people bare in mind that there's possibilities of loosing few thousand $$ when they go trade-in their cars.

I know what that's like. The tint place had my car for 8 days. They were supposed to do full PPF. They got too busy and never got it done. I picked the car up, drove it a week and dropped it off to another place, that had it 14 days. I only had my car for 8 days of the first 30 I owned it.

Tell me about it! I was told it may take up to 2-3 weeks for completion! Crazy times.

Mine just went into production yesterday so I won't have pics until mid-January, but I ordered Fjord Blue interior with Skyscraper Grey exterior (a bit lighter and more metallic than the grey a few posts up). I agree, though—it's a tricky color to match with an exterior color, but I'm thinking it will rock with skyscraper grey. What I've been told is that the Fjord Blue is much lighter in person than it appears on most of the renders BMWUSA provides.

Alpine White on Fjord Blue

I went with Alpine White and Fjord blue here and extremely happy.

The Blue is darker on more "muted" in real life. I dont know why but the camera really brightens it up.

Everyone that has seen it in my circle has agreed its a mix of Sporty and Classy at the same time.

Do you have more photos showing the exterior and interior in one shot? This is a configuration I have currently on order and I'm still not 100% if not to switch to Fiona.
