Brilliant white is a metallic white.

You can see the only F10 M5 spotted so far:

And here are examples of brilliant white on some other BMW models:

Keep in mind that the delivery date gets delayed by 1-3 months because of any individual option. I also had this choice between Alpine White and Brilliant, I chose Alpine White because:
- Brilliant white costs almost $5000
- Delivery date gets pushed by +2 months
- I didn't want to risk and didn't like pictures online any more than Alpine White (and according to many people it doesn't look any better than Alpine White in person)

But if you're willing to get a special color and late delivery doesn't matter then go for it.

If I'm not mistaken you can only choose from colors available at the time of ordering.

In the US, you can have BMW Individual do anything for you. Matte white, matte purple, matte pink, whatever.. as long as you're willing to pay for it BMW Individual will do it for you. Matte white isn't listed as one of the suggested M5 individual colors, but that doesn't mean you can't get them to do it for you, cause you can.

Don't know if it's like that in your country but just check with your bmw dealer about individual and if its the same as the US.

Wrapping is better if you were looking for good resale value

I would think that matte white would be a nightmare to keep it clean.

Wrap it, then you can always unwrap it and have the original color back when you get sick of it

Is the 2 to 3 month delay for spec individual colors like BW? Or is for an actual custom individual color? Was this in the US?
