Will a dealer let me order a Dakar Yellow 135i?
I have searched the forums and see people referring to the different P1 interior options. Will a dealer allow me to select an individual color option as well? All info and help is appreciated.

I've only heard that you can order any color in the current BMW line-up but that it costs big bucks. I've never heard that its possible with past BMW colors, though.

Yes, you probably can. I've seen quite a few Darkar Yellow and Estoril Blue E46 M3s. I've also seen these colors on non-Ms like 330i and X5. In fact, I have a friend who ordered an Aegean Blue E46 M3 with Kiwi interior through BMW individual program. You just have find a CA who is in the know to pull some strings. It'll probably be extermely difficult, but it can be done. Be prepared to shell out big bucks though. I believe the paint is a $2K option and probably the same for interior.

I tried, unsucessfully, to get the 1 in Imola. I was told that since the 1 is so new, custom colours aren't being offered just yet. Should they ever offer custom colours, the price I was quoted was $2000.
