BMW Welt delivery pic for Green Mamba with its new owner
Google Translation: What the Green Mamba and a BMW have in common? The name of a similar color and of course a lot of powerful "bite". The model "Green Mamba" in Java Green Metallic BMW Individual is one of the last produced BMW 1 Series M coupe. Its new owner, Steffen K., traveled with friends and children, is delighted at the spectacular collection of unique specimen 340 hp in the BMW world ... We hope you enjoy driving! |

I'm actually happy for him and his kids. Love the color! The 1M should have only been available in colors that match the personality of the car better, something less conservative than black or white:
Java green Monte Carlo or Atlantis Valencia Laguna Seca Dakar or Phoenix Fire Orange Pick any 3 but not AW or BSM, even though I ended up with Alpine....

I was told the same or that i could have the car stripped down, painted and rebuilt for 15k Euro. Shame really would have loved the option of titanium silver at 4.3k Euro on BMW individual but happy with AW now. I might wrap the car silver at some point in the future

I do not put much faith in this guy who told me that. He was just a tour guide at the Leipzig Factory. He also told me that the production ended back in February 2012. Which I thought was strange. I pointed out to him that the "Green Mamba" was built in the first week of June - and he said that they built a few cars after normal 1M production ended for "special customers". He said they made five or six of these special color 1M's. I am not sure what to believe anymore about the 1M production info. Perhaps we need a higher up source for "hard data"!

LOVE the color but the stripes are hideous.

Really neat green, though. I agree with Metak - a couple of colors would have have great potential for this vehicle.

Noop. The Prince was given the choice of a special color... but when he was told how much it would cost for just the pant... he decided to take his 1M in AW, and with no options! He thought the 1M is best, as a back to basics car.

And that's the kind of Royalty I would happily serve to.

Leopold Prinz von Bayern & his AW 1M...
Yup! He is really a cool guy. He attends most every BMW car event too. He is a sort of Ambassador for BMW. I have seen him at various BMW events throughout the year. IF it is a major BMW event you can bet he will be there in his Bayrische green jacket!
Here is the Prince with his "stripper" 1M parked out front of ///M GmbH in Garching...

So which 10 year old kid decided to put "Green Mamba" on the car?
