[QUOTE="Game-R, post: 625859, member: 27709"] Thats something I didn't know. Good to know at least the paint and body coating is original Bavarian handiwork. But any additional color other than the common favourites (silver, darker silver, shinier silver, etc.) equals additional cost for cars the dealers can't move as fast out of the showroom. Faster sales = Greater profits. Also back then, BMW owners, especially 5-series and 7-series, were as loaded as they were picky on style. Nowadays any housewife or mistress walks into their showrooms dragging their 'Maybank' by the arm :D So it a greater "profit sense" to provide colours that are most likely to be chosen by the growing majority of buyers who would be willing to buy the badge on a dead cat.
