GregM4 That's a very awesome color!

Very frustrated. The CF engine brace has been delayed for the third time by Turner Motorsports. Hopefully not too far away.

Think it will finish off the engine bay with the Verde Ermes engine cover.

Finally finished the engine bay off with the CF brace.

GregM4,
I am on a waitlist just to order my M3, it will be a manual, and your post help me decide between a few colors one of which was Verde Ermes.
You listed how long it took to get the car, is June 2021 when you got a production number and locked in your build? Then it took them 5 months to build?? Just wondering as I am on this waitlist and it might be up to 12 months before I get to actually place the order and get a production number.
Many thanks!

Apparently only two in the world in this colour as of the time of writing, so we are told by BMW in Australia. The wife picked the colour after we saw it on a M5 online. Now I’ve never owned a green car, I’m 55, but I must admit this green looks amazing IMO, and is like no green I have seen before.

Had the car just under a week now and the colour gets so many comments from people, even complete strangers who are drawn to it apparently. Will see if that’s a good thing over time!

Here is the build:

• G82 x-drive in Verde Ermes Individual / Kyalami Orange / 826 Bicolour.
• Fully loaded basically with ventilated seats.

We were lucky, only item not included was wireless charging. Here are some pictures taken on the day of delivery and a couple since so a mixture of shade and sunlight. A couple of short video links as well.

Think i received the build well within two weeks of ordering.

Not sure about the other colors on your shortlist but I can tell you Verde Ermes is outstanding in person. I live in a very sunny place and it pops.
