Hello! Popped in my dealer today just to say hello and spoke with the salesman I have always worked with. I don't want to give away too much info so as they don't get in trouble as I know corporate checks here regularly.

They mentioned that a representative was in RECENTLY and laid out some word of mouth details on the G87

They mentioned the possibility of the following colors, but I'm very confused. They are a young reliable source and I can't see any reason how they would be confused or lying to me.

Marina bay blue
Flamenco Red
Dravit grey
Thundernight
Isle of Man

I'd be surprised if BMW offered 2 different shades of grey, 2 different shades of blue, and 2 different shades of red.

Truth be told, the majority of those that participate here daily know more pertaining to the G87 than a large percentage of BMW Client Advisors.

100%. But he mentioned that a BMW rep told his salesman.

True, he did. Nevertheless if it is on the internet it must be true.

I could live with Marina Bay Blue, but it is not what I really want via individual paint.

Marina bay blue is gorgeous. I'd be very tempted but Dravit would probably be my favorite.

I didn't know green was even an option. I might as well wait it out for 24 or LCI 25.

Is that F32 champagne quartz? Looks to be a customer car out of service... assuming not for sale?

Also... seeing that's a dealer shot, are you a salesperson for a dealer in the chicagoland area who's knowledgeable of the M2?
