FYI- the 4.8is was not offered in Estoril Blue, it was only offered in LeMans Blue. The predecessor, the 4.6is, was the only X5 you could get in Estoril Blue.

:iagree:In order for an estoril blue 4.8is you need to buy it new under the bmw individual program.

What about this one?

Had to be the BMW Individual order, which makes it extremely rare.

If you guys search some of my threads, there is info regarding Estoril 4.8's. During the switchover from 4.6 to 4.8 a few of them were produced 'standard' (ie NOT individual orders) in Estoril before the official change to Lemans. They are mostly Jul/Aug/Sept 04 builds... ive never seen any others.

Pictured above is one. I also know someone that owns one, who unfortunately has no interest in parting with. I've seen a small handful over the years. I am very familiar with BMW's so i've done my homework!

In any case, your thread got some free bumps!

Early 4.8is had few bugs and recalls. Your req seems very specific. Good luck.

Thanks!

Unfortunately Im particularly picky.. Was thinking about just buying a black one and respraying it but would prefer to avoid that and find one already spec'd the way I want since there are SOME out there..

if someone finds me the vehicle I buy ill be sure to compensate them as a token of my appreciation :)

Do you know how many were made in Estoril blue? If you have BMW connections they will tell you exactly how many X5 were made in what color each year. My guess is that its very very few 4.8 in estoril.

That is LeMans blue.

Not mad at all, thanks for looking out! If anything those pics remind me how much I want the color and not to lose hope.
