British Racing Green with Tartufu would be awesome on a X3MC.
I own a 2022 X3M MBB with Tartufu currently.

I love the Frozen Marina Bay Blue Metallic, but wouldn’t pay the exorbitant fee for it.

So they’re going from a little over 40 colors on the G01 (per this list) to 15 on the G45, with many of the brighter colors getting the axe (pour one out for Java Green). Wonder if they’re just focusing on a smaller list of more popular colors at the start, or if this is permanent and meant to simplify production going forward.

Hopefully someone tracks down actual G01 Individual production numbers one day, but I’m guessing this list tips us off about the most produced colors from the last gen.

Ok. Plant Spartanburg is limited in selection and you should be looking at this link, which is not yet updated for the X3:

I wish these colors were available for the price of Dravit Gray.

One green should be in the standard palette. And I don’t understand why they haven’t changed up some of the M3/4 colors and X5/X7 colors since the platform launched, they are getting stale. I don’t know who’s in charge at BMW, but they’re doing a pretty lousy job…

M3/M4, agreed for the most part but launch had Oxide Grey (gone by 2023) on the M3, 2022 brought Skyscraper and Aventurin, 2023 brought frozen pure grey

X5/X6/X7 have seen plenty of color changes. Might missing a few on the X5/X6/X7, but there has definitely been a lot of changes on paints

2019 X5: Dark Graphite, Terra Brown, Phytonic Blue, Arctic Grey, Ruby Black, Sunstone, Pyrite Brown have all gone away
2019 X7: Dark Graphite, Phytonic Blue, Vermont Bronze, Arctic Grey all gone now
2020 X5: Manhattan Green comes in
2020 X6: Dark Graphite, Flamenco Red, Riverside Blue, Arctic Grey all gone
2020 X7: Manhattan Green comes in
2021 X5: Sparkling Brown comes in, Dravit Grey (M50i)
2021 X6: Dravit Grey comes in (M50i)
2021 X7: Dravit Grey, Tanzanite Blue come in
2023 X7: Frozen Pure Grey, Blue Ridge Mountain, Brooklyn Grey, Skyscraper Grey, Sparkling Copper, Marina Bay (M60i) come in
2024 X5: Marina Bay (M60i), Brooklyn Grey, Skyscraper Grey, Frozen Pure Grey, Blue Ridge Mountain come in
2024 X6: Brooklyn Grey, Skyscraper, Aventurin, Isle of Man (M60i) come in

I stand corrected, although I seem to recall skyscraper and Brooklyn and frozen grey as never changing even if rolled out slowly. I’d like to see other grey and blue and green options but every time we’ve purchased it seems the offerings are the same: portimao, tanzanite, and IOMG. Must have gotten unlucky? 22 X5, 24 X7, 22 4series, 23 M3, 24 M3, 22 Z4. Thankfully the iX came in oxide grey

Sorry to see Carbon Black has gone from the G45. Ordered mine in Tanzanite which is nearly as good!

Only 13 colors to select from is a bit underwhelming.

327 Santorinblue II Uni
P5T Frozen Marina Bay Blue Metallic
283 Daytonaviolett Metallic
S03 Ruby Red II Perl effect Metallic
A75 Melbourne Red Metallic
C4H Sao Paulo Yellow Uni
621 Brass Metallic
312 British Racing Green Uni
P85 Malachit Green II Metallic
W93 Frozen Brilliant White Metallic
C39 Lime Rock Grey Metallic
P6M Grigio Telesto Perleffect Metallic
U91 Frozen Black Metallic

Maybe they add more colors later.

Like Brass Metallic. No more - no charge Alpine white. With the exception of the frozen wonder how much of a upcharge is the new colors?

Brass or Malachit Green would be my favorite out of the selection.

i wanted Anglesey green which wasn't offered so I went for Tanzanite blue.

In Germany it's an additional €4900,- for individual paint (Including 19% VAT).

I think someone mentioned in another thread it's $4000,- for USA orders.
