Wow! Fantastic color choice.

May I ask how much time was added to your delivery for this individual color?

Some people have all the luck

I almost ordered mine in this color but got nervous on the delay, so instead I'm going to get it wrapped in XPEL Stealth to get a similar effect. Hope it turns out a nice as yours.

Looks cool, and the cerium trim of the M550 goes very well with it.

Beautiful combination! The paint and the trim goes so well together. I'm guessing this is an individual paint option

Hi yes it was an individual order placed by the dealer, the car was just sitting there on sale as I walked in.

I told them I wanted it right there!

Thanks for sharing. I don't suppose there's a lot of this colour out there? I am picking up my 540 in Frozen Arctic Grey in a couple of weeks. Good to see what it'll actually look like. lol

That's hilarious. My first plan is to tint the windows and tail lights as well. But I also wanna black out/change the grille to gloss black. It looks great! I plan to debadge also to have that rear completely clean.
