It was 740 units for the US and I believe 450 units for the UK. Production was still going on through this year for other markets around the world.

I want to know a) who's getting it, and b) what they paid.
Someone was able to pull some serious strings, or maybe it's for someone associated with the factory.

I know I'm in the minority, but (<--Wait, isn't that the actual color?)
It would work on something really exotic like a Lambo, but not on the 1M. I'd like to see a frozen white. |

Of course it maybe that Power Green and Java Green are one and the same colours with a different name, although I think Java might have a bolder hue with more flake in it...? Whatever, I love it, and I want it

This is really not something I wanted to read today... I gladly would have paid a premium to have the vehicle painted at the factory. and i'm sure most of us would have. Good job BMW

I love this color!
Yes the interior stitching better match the exterior color or else that is a MAJOR screwup IMO. Who is the new owner? Wanna trade me?

Leipzig: BMW 1er M Coupé “Green Mamba” in Java Grün
This green 1M was posted by Benny on BimmerToday.de
http://www.bimmertoday.de/2012/06/22...-in-java-grun/ Basically he says that in the next few days the very last 1M will be built at Leipzig. This green 1M was called: Project Green Mamba and that the color is called: Java Green The picture was taken on Thursday, June 22, 2012. The author "Benny" also states that the car will meet its new owner in a few short weeks. It also sounds like there might be some "other" special options on this car, to make it as dangerous as the real African Mamba snake. I guess we shall see. Also... some of the "visitor comments" seem to be from two other Leipzig plant workers... and that they were surprised someone would risk their job to take this picture. And also that BMW Leipzig was even still running factory plant tours as this Java Green 1M car made its way down the assembly line! One "worker" made a comment that this was NOT the only "specail" 1M to be built in a special color before - just that it is the first one that the public has seen. He mentioned that normally the plant tours are cancelled when such special cars are run thru the line. Dackel

When you take into consideration including all the logistics , restitution for stopping the production line , transport etc to and from Garching you are talking about almost near enough the cost of another 1M.
That is why they refused standard customer indivudual cars at the usual cost because it would not be cost effective in regards to disruption to the production line. They are one offs for BMW employees and special customers but all costs are handled in advance before work commences. There are several BMW AG executives and family and friends who have personalised 1M Coupe's.
