Thanks for all the information on the Individual program. I'll be sure to pass it on to her. She didn't even notice the badge or doorsills until I pointed them out.

She knows nothing about cars. She sold her 7 year old 545 with 10,000 miles on it. She said she wanted a certain color.


Side Note:

I've actually got pretty strong legs. I played college lacrosse and regularly compete in triathlons.........

I'll try to get a more flattering picture for you guys new time.

Unless your legs look anything like this please refrain from posting a pic.

Your aunt’s BMW color is called Deep Green Metallic, the color isn’t an Individual specific color but it is quite rare (for me at least) as the 7 series I see around town and online ad listings are usually black, white or beige. She may have ordered the BMW Individual Composition package which grants the following options:

The BMW Individual Program will go to a pretty far extent if you have the money to go through with the program, however I have noticed that the usual use for the program is for exterior colors, interior colors and veneers. This video should outline some of what I said.

Thanks a lot for the information David. I bet she ordered that package.

Now to settle the leg debate......... here is a ride I did today on a 27 pound mountain bike. It was about 50/50 split between trails and roads.


EDIT: I'm not sure why the picture uploaded so small but it was a 17.3 mile ride in 1 hour and 3 minutes.

exactly

in Germany you can either opt for special BMW Individual Compositions for interior and exterior colours or your can choose from a list of BMW Individual colours for the exterior and seperately for the interior as well.
For the 7er there are also a lot of BMW Individual options like fully leathered dash,BMW Individual steering wheel,BMW Individual ceramic applications for the buttons/switches etc and a few more things.
Apart from that you can opt for a own personalized BMW Individual Composition and really specify the car exactly the way you want it...but that`s really pricey and takes a lot of time.
But the guy from M6 board did it the right way and it was well worth it and probably quite an experience

The M6 from hawaii with the Individual trim is pretty unique, they went to extreme measures to get him that wood for the interior.
