G06 X6 in Nardo Individual / Tartufo / MSport x40i

Well, it's here! Great experience with Inskip in Warwick - only delete was the trunk sensor, which hasn't stopped being discussed in our house since (!) - but we did get the credit for it so all good.

Pretty straight forward build - the color combination was my wife's goal. Tartufo interior, dark aluminum mesh, and the black wheels / trim.

Mods will be minor, just like our e71. Front tinted, black badges replacing chrome, color matched vinyl for the reflectors, and that will do it for now. Otherwise, it speaks for itself - we are thrilled.

Individual option. We ordered mid Feb-ish, so roughly 16 weeks total - was expecting longer to be honest.

I thought Nardo was an Audi colour though? Never heard of Nardo grey as a BMW Individual colour.

Had no idea Nardo Grey was an option for BMW. Would have thought Audi would have trademarked that or something lol.

Looks great! Definitely worth the wait I'm sure!

Congrats, very special combo of colors! I love the original exterior design of the X6. The rear has a presence that really stood out at the time they came out.

And DONE after front XPEL, tint, and the vinyl wrap over the side markers. Easy and more economic alternative to replacement markers.

Beautiful color. I was redirected to this post as I’m ordering an X5M tomorrow and want this color. Can you please fill me in a little more on the process/timeline? Is this color called nardo as this is exactly what I want.

Yup Nardo. I ordered it in person via our local dealer - it took about 14 weeks or so - zero complaints, we love it.

How much was it? And do you have a 40i model or m50i?

I wanted to order this combo on a 40i and the dealer said they wouldn't do it… even though I knew it was possible.

Its a 40i - I believe it was $4150 as there was a special of some sort - might be related to the 50 year of M.

Ours is a stock 40i with the M sport.

Congratulations for the colour combo!
What interior trim did you choose?
Can you share a picture with it? I was curious of the matching with the Tartufo leather
