How much of a premium did it take to get those non-standard options? And I assume they required a non-refundable deposit of some sort? I'm always curious how these things work.

hello, just curious; do you pay a "premium" in addition to the above fees? i.e. are you paying more "above invoice" than you might otherwise have paid?

No premium at all. 1K over invoice only. I have a long history with my dealership and they are fanastic!

Thanks! I wonder if it's possible to special order an e70 non-M x5 in LeMans Blue or Imola Red? & if so, how much it would cost?

In general, BMW will NOT approve exclusive ///M colors on non ///M cars.

Ask me how I know.

I special ordered a 335d for a friend who wanted a color as close as possible to estoril blue. Estorial blue is nla btw. They would not approve Monte Carlo Blue. We went back and forth for some time and this was the $5K result:
