Wow that looks so gorgeous, I love the satin black grill surrounds I noticed BMW started doing with their recent models. Lovely car, lovely engine.

During the supply chain shortage days that was typical. Pre supply chain it still took at least 4 months for a US delivery post placing the order against an allocated build slot. This sounds like an advantage for the UK market as definitely less delivery logistics involved vs NA. Akin to my wife's X5 that is built here stateside. Took about 2 months for delivery (pre supply chain issues, etc.).

Congrats and beautiful spec. I love my Tanzanite Blue but if I placed an order at this point all of my builds have been San Remo. 👍

On my 2020 the only way to get a green spec was full Individual at $5K+. So it was a no brainer to go with Tanzanite.
