Picked up my new Manhattan Green Metallic 50e yesterday. My dad bought my 21 45e from me. Here are a few pics from delivery.

Stunning beast. My second favorite color, and sometimes I wish I went with it.

For some reason, the only cool color you can get on a 50e Msport anymore. Terrible decision by BMW.

I think there are plenty cool colors available for the 50e - CB, Dravit, and even Tanzanite Blue are among some of them:

Those were only recently made available in the configurator and I don’t believe there has been confirmation that they can actually be ordered on the 50e in the US. They were certainly not available when I placed my order.

Yeah I remember not seeing these colors available earlier in the year on the configurator and only saw it when a buddy of mine told me it was available (since he's in the process of ordering his 50e now). He didn't spec it out with any of those 3 colors that are a $2k option, but did make a note of availability. It'll be interesting to see someone on the forum order it with any of those premium paint options.

I was able to order a 50e with Dravit on 7/5. Week 32 build.

Dravit looks awesome. Even though I’m happy with manhattan green, I wish dravit was an option when I placed my order

Did some snooping at local dealer on Sunday. Found Dravit adjacent to Skyscraper for comparison. Jury is still out at least, for me. Still time to change my week 32 build. It's Dravit for now.

Correct, at least Ametrin and Tanzanite were not part of the original LCI launch, added a month ago. At launch, every color was a shade of white, black or gray + Blue Ridge Mountain (x-line only).

I ended up changing to Skyscraper at my wife's request. She didn’t care for the Dravit gold specks in sunlight. She called it Army green. After 48 years I know when to pick my battles. Now at status 150 with a VIN. Wk 32 production.
