$12,750 is enough to paint just about anything.

My SA has allocation and can order right now with individual paint. It's a thing now.
the extra 26k is exactly what Dackelone said above. The paint might be 13k, but the privilege of actually getting it is another 26.
Maybe. All Speculation on that 26k.

Is the Individual program available now? Only a few people know at the moment. I bet most dealers around the world have no idea.

Is the M2 getting a new engine next year? Maybe, nothing's confirmed.

C'mon, BMW. This is just bad.
Not really...

go to the nearest electronics store... - Do you see ads for the next gen models or do you simply see a bunch of stock for current models?

How far in advance before the next iphone or Samsung Galaxy phone comes out do buyers have confirmation of EXACT details of the new product? About a month? ?

Why would BMW AG or NA release details of a 2018 model any sooner than they have to? they want to keep sales of the 2017s moving until they are all gone.

Top-dog Galaxy phones or iPhones are revealed around the same time as last year so the comparison is not exactly the same, but I get what you're saying.

I don't really mind what or even it's gonna get anything new, but this thing with Individual is not a fair play from BMW. It's just one car, but people above mentioned that ind program is open.

Not that we're buying 7 series but same thing happened. Couldn't do it for awhile right when they came out then it opened up.

If BMW came out and said please just wait to order until individual colors come out they risk killing the hype train exclusivity and all the over MSRP orders.

If you have super hot limited edition whatever. The last thing you're going to advertise is a reason to wait.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to repaint it ?
I mean this is basically repainted at the factory. What's the point?

It is....kinda. If you choose an Individual color that has been done before, it's about $5k. If you choose an Individual color that hasn't been done before, it will cost you more (...to source the paint, etc.). You pay to play. People in the thread have already explained why it costs so much with regards to this particular M2.

This is confirmed and correct by the way the stitching will be an exact match.

$13K for paint? $7K for stitching!?! Not saying this isn't sick... but some people have more money than sense.

Grigio Telesto or San Marino Blue M2 please...

If it was $5K and not $256,000,000, I would have to seriously think about it. BUT I do like LBB for much less as my other option.

While nobody has spent $13k on paint in the M3/M4 community, some of the customization has cost a pretty penny. I saw an M4 build recently with about $20k in customization, and the listing on the build sheet was vague.

I wonder if they custom requested their 17 to come with MPSS as well

Imagine all that money in paint and stitching and it came with Contis

It is 5K to start

You will have to read the entire thread to understand my point... Might as well wrap it.
