No more individual colors for MY25?

codeyf · 12-02-2024, 04:48 PM

Inquired with my dealer about an individual color MY25 X5 xDrive40i, and was advised that the response from BMW was that there are no more individual colors until the MY26. Is anyone here able to confirm? FWIW, I was looking at a standard BMW color, ~~Toronto Red~~ Melbourne Red Metallic.

Saw someone else post that the other week however have seen no confirmation yet.

As an aside, Toronto Red is not available as an Individual paint for the X5.

Oh? It shows up on the individual visualizer as an option. If not that, then seems Melbourne Red Metallic is an option:

I would imagine you are using an invalid Individualizer. Can you please post the link to what you are using.

Toronto Red has not been available for at least three years, if ever.

Yep, I corrected my OP. Confusion source - the response from my dealer said Toronto Red.

Gotcha. Will let you know if I get confirmation or not.

Individual paints have ended for MY25 for the X4/X5/X6 and X7.

MY26 is just around the corner SOP is bound to be within the March/April timeframe.

Have not seen the EOP information but either this year or next they will have to push it back to the traditional 7/31 since the SOP for the G65 will be 8/01 of 26.

Appreciate all the info, but stupid question - EOP and SOP stand for?

edit: Start/End of Production?

Your edit is correct.

Not a color question but does anyone have an idea as to whether the physical buttons on the X5 steering wheel will go away in MY26 and change to the button 'panel' as it is in the new X3 steering wheel?

I'll have to order ASAP so I don't get stuck with the panel..

Welcome to the forum. Highly unlikely there will be any changes for MY26.

Yep.

MY18 was the longer MY for the F15 prior to the G05. Guessing the same will happen for MY26 prior to G65 SOP. Only time will tell.

It looks like dealers were able to order some 2025s with individual colors for themselves, maybe this is still a thing. Here's X5 M60I's in Indianapolis Red Metallic, Gentian Blue Uni and Citrin Black Metallic -
