Sales Advisor Confirmed Individual Colors?

So, was speaking with a sales manager and a local BMW dealer, and she said that after the initial allocation of cars, individual colors will be available.
I asked her three times, because I was kind of shocked, but she seemed very sure of it and also sounded pretty confident about the specifics. After release, then BMW will introduce individual paint...

Is she lying?????

Ask her if the car is made in Germany and if it has a V6 under the hood.

I have actually seen a SA claim that a BMW had a V6, and then double down when told it was patently false. Walked out immediately.

I find people nowadays just make shit up for the sake of looking informed. It's pathetic really and they may get away with it until later when you find out they were full of shit. Problem is they just lie some more and say things changed. I know some people don't like to call others liars; I however don't have that problem. I call it as I see it. This is also why I trust no one unless they have a track record of being reliable or unless it's directly from BMW corporate.

society rewards pathological liars, it's definitely a clown show when you strike up car enthusiast conversations at most dealerships, most just don't have a clue.
