Shiet maybe it's time I get an M4, have two eternal rivals in my homestead garage.

Selenite Grey C63S vs Chalk M4

But that telesto grey, spicy color
Well, M3, M4, M5, M6, on and on.

Something about the 2series factory not being equipped for individual paint.
Hopefully we can see it incorporate the Individual color system in next generation, or near end of generation.

I'm willing to fork over the cash if it isn't 60k like discussed in another thread (or was it this one, the one where the guy got his in Austin yellow or that one green) might as well just get another Porsche at that point zzz

Some priority 1 individual colors such as Tanzinite Blue or Champagne Quartz cost $2k while others cost $5K. However, if you request a color that is never done before by BMW, in other words if it's not listed by Individual Manufaktur, I believe it costs $7K+ depending on the color. I would happily pay $2K for San Marino Blue but $5K is just too much.

So, I'm getting mixed answers. Is it possible to get an M2 in an individual colors? I will pay 7k for it

What I said is for models that offer individual program. There is currently no individual color or any other customization offered for M2. Unless you are willing to pay an astronomical amount... So the short answer is no, you cannot get any non-standard color for $2k, $5k or $7K on an M2.

Here is a F80 M3 in Porsche Fashion Grey. Which is very similar to Chalk, just slightly darker.



Fashion Grey(Left) vs Chalk(Right).

Weird how there are future owners who are willing to fork over $5k for individual paint and BMW won’t do it.
The facility the 2 series is made at doesn't support individual I think. They'll need to upgrade the factory first.

For about 50k they'll move your m2 over to a facility that supports individual colors.

Well to the guy who has warehouses full of Porsches and a hundred similar cars that never get driven, it doesn't matter if an extra 50k is Porsche money.

I mean it's not like BMW is trying to convince people to pay them 50k to do individual in an M2, it's the other way around, people can attempt to convince BMW to do individual for an extra 50k

Correct, the Leipzig facility is not set up to do individual colors, unlike the production line for the M3s/4s.

You can wrap it, or.....take a look at Auto Flex. Actual peelable paint, so you can get it in any color, but still retain the option of going back to the original color.
