In February 2010 SCOTT26 announced that the 1M (provisionally labelled "M1" back in the day) would feature a highly optioned cosmetic personalization program, including Techno Violet as color. If we don't talk about the limited ///M Performance features, virtually none of the announced features made it to production. Either because he was misinformed or because BMW shelved the personalization program.

If you look at some of the personalisation options considered you can see that this was before the M Performance accessories introduction and that many of these additional accessories were launched under M Performance for the previous E82 1er Coupe models as previewed by the BMW 1er Tii Concept Car.
The programme when I reported was the early conception to M Performance , budget constraints prevented all for one model but they did offer the more accessible and popular aftermarket accessories under M Performance which could be retrofitted to the 1er M Coupe.

I really really hope DG will be offered. I've had a few M3's in different colors and my favorite overall has been either Space Gray or Silver Gray. Donnington has a liquid quality that just looks awesome! When I see DG and it makes me think about this pic...very liquid. Come on BMW, give us an awesome gray again verdammt noch mal!

I think the color palette is going to be the same as the X5/6 M. If that's the case there's some interesting colors like donington grey and long beach blue, plus some classics like silverstone, mineral white, black sapphire, and my favorite carbon black. I would personally love to see a dark green metallic like fern green but I don't think its going to happen.

I find the color selection on M (or M performance) cars a bit lacking. As with the M235i, you can't get deep sea blue unless you get a 228i with no M package. Why would BMW want to limit our options...?

Then you'll not be disappointed with the M2 as it's going to live up to that standard unfortunately. I truly wish their colorists or whoever it is that decides such things would be a bit more creative...or fun loving, or daring even. Oh well, guess it's underneath is what counts.

I mean yea, you'll see M3/4 Individual builds on the homepage but really, how many people are going to drop that kind of money on one? I can think of better things to do with $5000 personally. None of the "cheaper" Individual paint really does anything for me.
