I'll order tomorrow, but not without a few more choices being made available! E70 LCI was CBM with Oyster, F15 is GS with Black, I want a G05 CBM with Tartufo - or GS with Black - BUT NO! YOU CANNOT! Any word on leather and paint choices coming?

"Due to countless requests and huge demand for more exterior color options, we are expanding the palette with one more shade of black!"

First they need to work on getting the Driver Assistance system to work with any color, that is evidently the reason for the limited color palette.

That's odd given how the 7er/8er/3er all have it with more colors

Different body shapes may come into play. Remember last year they offered Sunstone Metallic but DAP was not available on it. A member here came across an article explaining the limitations of it with certain metallic paints which I guess makes sense given BMWs reluctance to offerer silver, gold etc.

I remember that, but nothing's stopping them from offering Green/Blue in a wider spectrum

That is true. I only ever had one red vehicle, an old pickup truck, so wouldn't mind having some reds to consider also.

I wouldn't mind that either, I've owned 1 red car ever. I prefer cool colors (green/blue/purple etc) but I wouldn't mind more interesting colors though. Carbon Black is the only black paint I really like, Grey's and silvers can be nice yet nothing beats a bold color
