I wanted that color on my 540i but BMW refused to put a M color on a non M car. I had 2 US dealerships email them about it. Ended up with Mediterranean blue. Oh well it's on a ship now and I'm starting to really like the Med blue. I did get my IND Tartufo Merino leather.

Bmw refused? I be seen it advertised on a 520d here in the U.K. which I thought was quite unusual as I think generally only the more expensive models tend to chosen for any bmw individual treatment.

Shame as the colour is quite amazing, saw it in person on a m5 in a showroom some time back and it was incredible.

Dealer had M5 in the showroom in MBB. It is eye popping especially under showroom lights. I was willing to pay the crazy $5,200 for IND paint but both dealerships said BMW wouldn't do it, not even on a M550. Only true M cars.
I see "bimmertrashjr" is getting it on a M550. Should look great. Good luck.
I'm loving my full leather (inc dash) interior now. Probably wouldn't have done both because interior was ($3,700 + $1,600). Luxury seatings required.
