Custom Color

[med]

Does anyone know how if you can get an exterior color for the 2007 X3 that is not listed in the color chart? I liked the light blue color that was available in 2006.

not sure but would like to know. have you asked the dealer(s)?

You should be able to, but will have to pay extra for it. When I checked into getting a custom colour in '05, I think it was 1-3 thousand dollars extra (I can't remember the actual quote). Your dealer should be able to give you a quote. Whether or not you can get a particular colour depends on where your car is manufactured. I wanted a colour which was specific to the 5-series, and was unable to get it as the X3 and 5-series are manufactured in different countries. However, since you'd like a colour which was previously available on the X3, I don't think you'll have a problem.

I saw a custom Estroil Blue E46 M3 on eBay once. I think the window sticker said $2,600 charge.

It's usually a $2500 extra. I have seen a handful of non-4.6is Estoril Blue and Imola Red X5's, and a few Carbon Black X5's. (Estoril Blue and Imola Red were 4.6is colors only with Imola also being available on the 4.8is.)
