No "Black" Color option for M235i?
I noticed this was the case on the Msport 4 series too - you can only get the metallic "black sapphire" not just the "black" version available to non-Msport models. Seems a bit odd, can anyone confirm if this really is the case, or can you get one ordered in non-metallic black at no cost? I'm not a fan of the green/black look from the metallic paint.

no valencia orange for M235i either...
also you can get oyster/dark interior for the sport line but not for M sport or M235i. Cmon BMW even the Mini has more choices!!!

That's odd because I'm sure the M135i allows this combo. Then again, Valencia orange is available for it too

Blasphemy ! Both of my E92s were JB....I was considering it for the M235. It's nice because that has traditionally been a no cost option - just like Alpine White. Funny how we are seeing more and more of this from BMW. Like the ZF transmission being "standard" and the MT being a no cost option. We MT drivers are now paying for the AT (since it is included in the MSRP), and you are now paying for nearly every color of paint as well. A JB, MT M235 should be 42k - not 44. Just my $.02.

JB is only beautiful when the car is brand new. No matter how much time and effort you put into it, the paint will be full of swirls and look like crap. I don't think it's selling all that well anymore and I think they will stop offering it all together in any model
