2021 M5C - Individual Color Porsche Night Blue?

I'm currently working with my local dealer on an individual order for a 2021 M5C. Was thinking Porsche Night Blue might be a good option. Anyone ever seen a M5 with this color? Or any thoughts from the group on how it might look?

That color to me looks kinda understated to be worth the individual color price. What a pout other Porsche PTS blue's? I think Albert blue and Pantone Blue are amazing colors and would look insane on M5.

Way too boring of a color for individual order. As mentioned above, if you are doing individual, best to find something more interesting

If you are going to spend the $5000, there are lots of great choices. The Blue Hera Mica is really nice.

+1 on the Hera Mica. Google it; it's stunning.

Wonder if any of these colors are exclusive to the M5/8...

Did you read my post? I wasn't trying to purchase that car. I was asking for feedback on that color for a M5 individual order.

If your'e going with blue, go with Yas Marina Blue! It's my favorite individual color in the entire catalogue.

Looks quite nice and classy to my eye. I am sure you have seen all the different shades of blue in the individual visualizer, many are close but none exactly the same. Do you know the cost to do a completely unique color not in their listed choices? I had tried to do just an individual trim on my September build and according to my dealer and his checking with Germany (and BMW of Grapevine) they would not do ANY non standard individual order because of production delays and issues on covid related staffing at the individual plant. Maybe that is relaxed now?

I'm trying to see if I can get a champagne quartz metallic M5, my current M3 is that colour and I've seen a couple M5's on instagram in that hue... I can't seem to find it at all..

Champagne Quartz was a $1950 option on the M5 for the past few years. With the LCI, they changed a few of the color options...but not sure if they took that away. Either way, you should be able to do it just like any other individual color...but it maybe the full $5k this year and moving forward.

Thank you for the information, I will see what the dealer comes back with in terms of pricing!

u dont needd to find anything. when you build a car online, spec it how you want it. call your dealer, give them the build # and then tell them what color you are "requesting"

they will do the rest. been thru this a few times. trust me.

Looks like Imperial Blue will do it for you.

This is way in the other direction from Night Blue, but as the others have already advised you might as well go big if you’re going to drop $5k and wait months for an individual order....

I’ve always been partial to Atlantis Blue if I were to ever order an Individual blue finish.

That said, I think the Marina Bay Blue standard color is the ideal blue for this car, which is why I ordered that. Not too dark to be seen, not too light to be undramatic. Full of metallic flake. Gorgeous.
