they used to but for the G05 did away with the color for some reason

About time 🎨 BMW North America 🇺🇸 🇨🇦!

I have a few photos of it next to our Grigio Telesto X5 m50i as well

Purpose of this post is to share special colors since Spartanburg has opened up to individual colors!

Great pics OP. I love both colors, and all of the Individual Grey-scale offerings from BMW. I just ordered my M5 LCI in Fashion Grey on Full Tartufo. Both of these colors were in my final list. For some reason, Grigio did NOT look this sharp in any picture I saw on the M5... I hope I made the right choice.

You did! Thats the best choice!! Congrats!!! For me fashion gray is the right fit, grigio seems a bit too dark. For the interior I would say silverstone, an exclusive color to M cars. I used to think its boring but now am bored of all other colors. But of course only a matter of personal preference. I am guessing with the X5 it is impossible to get fashion gray. New M5 LCI it will look sweet.

They sell it at Walmart in cans. :-)

Actually I think lime rock would look better with all cerium accents

Lots of individual paint cars in West Virginia

The last I been there, it seems like ghost state that cannot recover from the coal mining vansihing industry

I guess time is changing, good for WV

Haha. I actually work in Maryland and live just over the border in WV. I barely ever drive in WV.

But, back on topic... I still don't understand why people and the brands feel that "luxury" should be predicated on the fact that automobiles need to be 20 shades of white/gray/black. It's so boring!

gqgambler · 01-24-2021, 09:25 AM

Grigio Telesto looks awesome on that G05. Hate that they went cheap with the 20" wheels. I understand its probably being for the all-seasons tires and in CO, but that color would look slick on some 22" 742s. BMW needs to step up its game and over all-season tires on the larger rims.

Well there you have it

$5000 wasn't quite enough for BMW

ATLIEN · 01-24-2021, 02:46 PM

Nice but that photo is not Spartanburg. Ha ha.

GOLFFRR · 01-24-2021, 04:39 PM

SC plant has been producing indiv orders for a while now, glad to see more and more coming out each day and also more and more color options. The color list last time I saw it posted was super long, love to see it

would love to have a BRG x5

Sure did! It wasn't easy choosing! My wife was fed up with me sending her pictures of chalk/fashion/nardo/lime rock/ grigio lol

I just love Tartufo. The white stitching and overall luxurious look of the interior are perfect for me. I also like how it is not available to have without paying the premium. I had "Oyster" interior on my 335is years ago which resembled Silverstone and the leather would get too dirty too quickly for my liking.

I think that Grigio Telesto is by far one of the most tasteful colors available- but given the 5k price tag to have a special color, I could already hear the roasting and complaining from everyone that it looks like "Metallic Grey." Fashion Grey on the M5 is going to be a looker and unique enough for me to justify the added cost.

What is up with the lease amounts? For X7 M50i I was told about $2,900 per month and for X5 M50i I was told $2,400 per month. I checked the BMW USA online and the approximate lease amount was as crazy and astronomical. Have they lost their mind? Or is BMW trying to encourage people to go to Mercedes?

John-M007 · 01-25-2021, 06:00 AM

Any dealer selling the X7? By the way, how much are they charging for these individual paints?

Yes, there are dealers in these forums selling all models.

Look 10 posts up. You'll see the answer that BMW is charging $5500 for individual paints.
