LOL same here. Stick with AW/coral red or bite the bullet and pony up another $475 for Montego w/Jade and not worry about trying to keep it too clean since it'll only be a 2-yr lease.

Thanks! I'll be following the "12-hour rule", so there will be pics up from Germany. I plan to take a few close up shots, hopefully with a direct light on it, so that everyone can get an idea of what the color is like.

There is a guy on Bimmerfest that may be getting it even earlier than me, so hopefully we will have some pics even sooner.

Now if I can just survive the wait!

I'd probably go with Alum again or the Gray Poplar.

if it's 2 years screw if your keeping it clean... let the dealership worry it out. Pick the color you like. And Jade would be pretty rare on US roads

LOL Dude I'm having a real difficult time understanding you, but I think you're saying "let the dealership worry about cleaning it since it's only 2-yrs."

Dayum this is killing me, BMW better not come out with any other options for post-March 1 production because I'd have to pony up again.

AJ M2 comp · 01-19-2008, 06:22 PM

My order has been updated, cant wait to see what it looks like in person.

LEDZEP · 01-19-2008, 06:43 PM

very similar to the lemon for the E90. I love the light/dark two tone effect.

haha, my post is a little hard to understand now that I read it again. At least you got the basic meaning of my garbled words. That's what I get for posting while falling asleep....

are you guessing or do you know this? there is a lemon in my town's lot right now...should i go check it out for comparison?

adrian's bmw · 01-22-2008, 09:32 PM

Wow, I had no idea Jade would really catch on fire like this. I'm really pleased. What a great feeling to be able to let ya'll know that this option existed.

Now all we need is anthracite headliner.

e90fanatic · 01-22-2008, 10:20 PM

not my cup of tea but it looks nice..

Is that guy me?

I'm picking up the same interior combo with Alpine White on the outside. I can't wait to see your Jet Black Coupe as well.

Gotta thank Adrian again for the heads up about this!

That's not true; it's similar to the interior available on the M3, but the M3 has Silver Novillo leather.

My bad.. I meant to say in general appearance and not specifically or exactly like the M3. Thanks for noting that though.

adrian's bmw · 01-28-2008, 11:20 PM

First, allow me to sincerely apologize publicly that I could not contain my excitement about the introduction of Jade Leather as an available leather upholstery for the E92/93. It's recently come to our attention that Jade Grey Dakota Leather is a $1,450 additional cost option. After initially modifying an order, this option in the price column appears in the vehicle inquiry as "blocked". It's easy to assume that this option is "free." It is not. Evidently, when you make an inquiry on the vehicle after the "block" has been lifted, the price of $1,450/$1,320 appears.

This does not happen as a result of adding the 20"s to the sport package. The premium package, priority 1 leather, and premium package are mutually exclusive.

For anyone else who has ordered Jade Grey Leather, you need to pull a new inquiry. The charge will now be present.

Again, my sincere apologies for not catching this. Nevertheless, I strongly believe that the exclusivity of getting a priority 1 leather upholstery is certainly worth its keep.

Are you sure its not a glitch in the system?

I believe the P-1 Lemon interior for E90/91s do not incur this extra charge over ZPP or standalone leather option...

Yeah, I'm sure.

Trust me, I wish it were a glitch in the system I could override, but I can't.

I have a 335i coupe that's about to be shipped for U.S. delivery that has Jade Grey and it's showing a charge for it. Below is the cut and paste from the vehicle inquiry:
