This was no off the shelf color. The OP had it specially commissioned. It's the first of its kind so he gets to name it!

Do you also get BMW to promise not to reproduce the colour on another customer's car?

What kind of amateur would want to copy someone else's color!

I want to commission a color I am going to call Frozen Unobtainium

I don't think it works that way.

You mean BMW's color? I think BMW would be more than happy to reproduce it for the right price.

Very nicely optioned car. It gives me a lot of ideas. I was wondering about the cigarette lighter and read the posts about the dual USB chargers. That is nice. Do you happen to remember if Individual can do anything with the Valentine One radar detector?

This is true, however, I believe what Stealth may be saying is if you're going to pay BMW enough to paint just your car in a particular colour (i.e. not part of a batch), you may as well choose something unique.

Sorry, but I just forgot to ask this single question!

But I can hardly imagine that Individual will install a radar detector from factory.
