I will probably throw mine on the Dupont Registry in a few months and go for the slow sale. I like it, but I moved downtown and never drive it anymore!

Just love the color!

If I ever see one of the new M3's in this color available I'll be FRS-less pretty quick.

BMW Individual paint is a $5,000 option. All you have to do is find a dealer that knows how to order an Individual, and you can have a new M3 in that color.

That's awesome. Do you just supply a color code, or do they have a pallette you choose from?

I'm fairly sure my local dealer could order individual. Back in the day we ordered a custom Mini through them.

My dream was to own a E90 M3 in Techno Violet. It didn't happen.

I don't think BMW will do Paint to Sample like Porsche and some of the other luxury marquees, but they will paint the car in just about any color that BMW has ever used on one of their cars.

I know I am late in responding, but the way that BMW does it, is you actually have to submit a request to get a color approval for specific models. They have a list of colors and even though they are all options, bmw has to approve the color combos for the cars. I have seen a lot of combos get turned down too. BMW will make alternative offers to you as well.

Just be careful though that the paint covers what you expect. Like the trunk shuts and underneath the hood. You might not be pleasantly surprised.
