Special order paint pricing...

[CarlosC]

Jon,

Does it really cost $1,800-$2000 for special order paint from the factory? How much of that is really just dealer profit?

It's unfortunately true Carlos, and there really isn't any profit in it...

:dunno:

OK, just checking... not that it makes any difference... you've already got my deposit... now I just hope you guys can get my car by December! - Franco's on it I'm sure! :)

Carlos, I'll do everything that I can to expedite your delivery...

Franco will take very good care of you too...

Hang out here in the meantime, and have some fun!

I'm thinking of a special color also. Went to the BMW Indiv. site and can't find your color, is it something new?

don't look at the individual site. You can go down to your BMW dealership and see the color on a 5er almost definitely. It's a standard color for 5s and 7s I think.
