Custom color on 08?

A friend of mine is planning to order 08 and was told there is a custom color option for around $3k. Has anybody heard of it yet?

Is a "Priority 1 option" just another name for "BMW Individual"?

No, "P1" are customer sold cars. These are cars that usually have names and are sold baring any unforseen circumstances. These cars can get "hidden" options and usally get pushed towards porduction faster and get priority shipping.

Carbon Black, Imola Red and Estoril Blue were all offered as standard colours on a particular model in the E53 range at one time or another so I would think that's why you could have them as custom colour on another model.

Maybe they are introducing Individual for the X5 ?
