If an individual color is an option on the BMW site, does that mean that it too is prone to taking longer to get built?

The individual catalog colors designated to specific BMW models, or as they are informally called, "semi" individual or pre-designated individual colors will take less time as other individual colors require approvals, sourcing the paint, transportation, prepping and assembly line slots etc.

These extra steps are in most cases eliminated for individual catalog colors as BMW most likely already pre-planned for them. I'm not sure if the take longer than standard colors tho. My guess is they take a little longer than standard colors (maybe 2 weeks) but not as long as >4weeks.

Appreciate it! I'm kinda new to all this and I got an individual color that was an option on the site, so I wasn't 100% sure

Thank you! I placed the order in on August 26th, so it's somewhat recent still. Believe status is still at 111, so I still don't have a build week just yet :/

Yea still quite recent. After you get a build week and productions begins, things should move fairly quickly. Congrats again. Don't forget to post pictures when you take delivery.
