Here's proof that you CAN get Neptune blue without any "edition" here in Sweden
...and yes! That IS Neptune Blue!

... but isn't that the Edition Lifestyle? The wheels and sportseats are sure indications of that...

Sorry but..nope.
Edition Lifestyle (7MD) comes with style 278 wheels not 244 as on the pics. 7MD also comes with shadowline and antracite roof liner.

My current E61 is Space Gray and I'm thinking about going for some different and not so common (=boring) color this time!
My choices are narrowed down to Platinum Brone and Neptune Blue (a VERY nice color from what I've seen so far).
I'm also opting for Shadowline (black trim around windows) and 245 style wheels.

So, anyone with a Neptune Blue E61!?
Pls post some pics...

thanks
Finally here is one...

Thanks Marco!
Great photo but a little bit too much "studio". I'd really like to see it in more natural lighting.

Seems to be quite hard to get some real life pics of a Neptune Blue E61
I'll probably be the one and only...if I choose to get one.
I've seen a Barbera Red E61 in town though..

The BMW Group in Sweden have upgraded their car configurator on www.bmw.se and it's possible to choose Neptune Blue without adding any package to the configuration.

If I could do my choice over again I would opt for Alpine White. All recent BMWs looks amazing in white. We recently got a Alpine White 1-series in the family and we absolutely loves it. But it requires decent rims and M-Pack though. Since you'll save the metallic charge you can go for nicer rims!

White is definitely the new black.

A white M3 looks awesome.

This is a video of a white M3 racing a Veyron !
