Individual colors are starting to become more and more popular amongst BMW owners. From Ontario Gold Metallic to Laguna Seca and Atlantis Blue, new BMW owners are spending thousands of dollars on some of the most exclusive exterior colors.
At around $5000 a piece, these unique colors are far from being considered inexpensive, but for some of the most loyal and enthusiast BMW fans out there, beauty has no price.
Now add one of these colors to an already amazing car, BMW M5, and you’re getting a gift that many dream of.
Avlnch, a member of M5board, has recently placed an order for an Individual Frozen Grey Metallic BMW M5, the very same color that made its debut at the Frankfurt Auto Show back in September, at that time, on a BMW M6 model.
The Frozen Grey Metallic mate finish is slowly becoming one of the most popular Individual colors. It is based on Space Grey Metallic paint and a special matte clear coat (FF95-0550) makes for the matte finish.
Looking at the photos below, we have to admit we’re a bit jealous to see that combination and we certainly look forward to more unique BMWs.
Thanks for the tip avlnch!

I would love to see that ride in person..
How does one care for a matte finish paint exterior? Is it more/less painstaking than keeping the gloss of a typical finish? Just curious to know others experiences…
Great minds and all that . . . ; -)
Anyone have any idea how you care for the matte finish? I mean it’s pointless to wax it. ; -)
I think you use matte wax.
Which comes from matte bees.
haha

to clean the car you can only use soap + water no wax, no polish. not even wax in car shampoo. you always needs to clean bug juice off the front bumper as it can’t sit there for long. it’s a simple detail.
Very nice. not a fan of grey cars but this looks sweet. Should have some black wheels though.
