Must be an individual color. Looks awesome.

This particular shade of green is perhaps the best. It looks sharp with red leather in the background. Thanks for sharing.

I attempted to order a Verde shade of green when I ordered my 850 back in April.

I was told that they are not taking any individual colors at this time. I settled on Sonic Speed Blue, which just finished production yesterday.

Hope to see in late June!

Also curious about this green for individual ordering on any BMW - I did some digging and the color is called Verde ermes, originally on some lambo aventadors. Color is amazing...

FYI it is indeed Verde Ermes (P7T paint code) and available on the M850i Coupe (likely other variants) and was offered it when I placed my 2020 M850i order in August for $5K. The key though being that the interior in this video is Cognac (know it looks red but it is not) and that along with Tartufo/Black are the best interior colors to match (along with Ivory White but I'm not a fan).

Given I was in love with Fiona Red/Black I decided to go with Davit Grey for the first order which was botched due to the ZDX vs ZDA fiasco and ended up with Tanzanite Blue which is gorgeous. The key to Individual special orders is the dealer's clout with BMW and the deposit to order required.

My dealer could get the Verde Ermes as well as the Frozen Dark Brown (P6A paint code) I was interested in but they wanted a $5K non-refundable deposit vs $2500 for the Davit Grey (carried over to the Tanzanite Blue) given they may end up with a car that they'll likely eat the cost of the custom Individual if you walk away no differently than they were offering to eat the $4100 carbon fiber package and then start negotiating on a 2019 black on black they had in stock at the time which I had no interest in.
