No !
What blue BMW color would you consider "special" then? Estoril, LSB, Lemans?

IMHO, while I can obviously tell that LBB is an acquired taste, I have no doubt it is special. It is similar to Atlantis Blue, which was an expensive Individual color. So yea, LBB is quite easily as special as VO.
A special blue? Monte Carlo Blue Metallic (B05) - as released on the 2009 E92 M3 Edition and 2012-current F10 M5.

Java Green would be another colour that would be special and suit the M2.

If BMW want it to be a special colour then there isn't any reason why it shouldn't be a colour that is usually selected from the Individual range.

While Leipzig can't do Individual orders, I don't see any reason why one of the four fixed M2 colours couldn't be a colour that would usually be considered Individual but would be produced at Leipzig on a relatively mass scale.
