Well I was told that the manager at the dealership contacted corporate and they told him that the color I was asking for was offered on the M5 and would add 2 weeks lead time (hence I was confused by the 11 weeks, lol)

I was quoted the standard individual color price (it was around 5K I believe). For 50K he could've gotten a second car lol. That color must have meant a lot to him. Was it also on an M5?
Nope it was a 7 series, he had custom color interior as well and his name engraved in the dash with gold stitching, car cost more than a new rolls lol.

But the "adds 2 weeks" just means that once it enters assembly it takes an extra 2 weeks and if my info is correct it's because they do the paintwork somewhere else.
