Do all previous BMWs with frozen paint have either a CF roof or black glossy clearcoated roof? I wonder if they are doing that to avoid damage to the satin clear from birds and tree sap (roof most vulnerable), or just for looks?

No, I don't think I've actually seen a frozen color with a black roof. There were plenty of non-frozen colors with black contrasting roof before though.

Definitely not a mistake. I'm not really sure what to make of this. I'd say it is a special edition, but BMW doesn't usually build more than one early PR car. This time there are two identical Frozen Orange cars built back to back.
As for a customer car, these are too similar.

This gets repeated over and over and it is not true. All Individual colored 1Ms and the sole N55 M2 were painted in Leipzig. Only plastic bits like bumpers were painted at another plant.

Randomly stumbled upon the build sheets.
