Actually I tried to build a Montego Blue on BMW NA site and it said that coral red is not a option. I figure that it won't be a option on the 1 series as well.

I think that color option is only available through the BMW Individual Program.

Montego blue is a slightly deeper blue than the World Rally blue in Subarus, but I think they are still too close to get away with gold rims without looking too subyish.
Yeah, me too.

I'm a fan of both Estoril and Le Mans. Then again, my M Coupe is Estoril and my M5 is Le Mans, so maybe my 135i should be Montego? I've loved it ever since I saw it on the E92 335i, so why not?

I, like others, am torn between Alpine White and Montego, though. I love Alpine White. My first car, which I still own, is an Alpine White E30, and I think it just looks so classy in the color. However, I'm beginning to be of the opinion that newer BMW lines do well with a metallic color.

Ah, who knows. Just general ramblings. I won't know a thing until the cars start to arrive in March .

The BMW Individual Program is a way for those with deep pockets to customize cars ordered with BMW options other than those offered by dealers. Usually special paint or interiors. Contact your dealer for more information.

Great shots Freak...they look to be cleaned up versions of earlier posted pics. The 1-er looks great in Montego Blue.
Chrome trim is a must with this color.

And I can only surmise that when an admin re-releases pics there's no new news, and no new photos.
BMW has locked this down much too tight (imho).

Looking at the photo from the OP & these last track pics...
It seems pretty clear that they are not the same colour.
The top pic must be LeMans

Which NA most likely will not get, but if we do I am changing my order from Monaco/Terra to LeMans/Terra for sure.
