1. Did you put money down and is it refundable?
2. Is the dealership a "M Certified?"

I would call a few other dealers to see if you can get an allocation for a individual car. I got a few calls the day the G80 was unveiled, we talked options but I dont remember if individual paint was off the menu. That's at least here in the NW. Could be different dealership to dealership.

The purple must be an individual color right? Velvet blue?

I wonder if these are the first employee cars that will be delivered before Christmas. Individual specification cars showing up early in production are usually for employees own use.

Dang BMW, the M4 & M3 are not Lamborghinis or super hyper cars.

Some of these new paint 🎨 colors are absolutely horrendous 🤢! They emphasize the poorly executed design lines even more so.

After all these years these new convoluted exteriors and excessive pricing has me looking at Alfa Romeos 🇮🇹.

I don't get why BMW has black on the side skirts. It makes all non black cars bodies ground clearance gap look worse and that's just the opposite the M3/M4 need. We like our cars lower please.

Black looks best because it camo's the grill, purple is runner up because the color is as out there as the grill. At the end of the day whatever color you choose all comes back to how it pairs with the grill. Chiefly because the grill throws the lines all out of wack. But I'm assuming with a handful of mods the grill can be brought into balance, perhaps.

Which color is the grey/silver? Oxide? A bit difficult to tell, since the color balance in that video seems a bit off (Toronto looking much more "vibrant red" than in reality).

Silver for sure in the video. However, I would go with Jaguar green and brown leather interior. 👍🏾

Based on the Instagram pictures this should be Brooklyn Grey.

The Vehicle next to the IOMG is Oxide Grey and the darker vehicle as he rounds the corner next to the purple car is Dravit Grey.

What are we supposed to do? Gush over it on every single thread the way you do the opposite?
