Sakhir Orange
I am about to order the 440xiGC soon and was wondering if Sakhir Orange is available on non M cars? Also what would it cost for this custom color?

On a non M car that cost is pointless in my opinion. If your car is well equipped, you might as well order an M3 since it's a standard color...

I paid 1300 € for Sakhir Orange on my 330e
Gentlemen,
I ordered my 330e (M-Sport Package) in Sakhir Orange, set me back 1300 Euro (1450 USD), quite reasonable, non-individual colors are 900 |

Not in the US, unfortunately; they're much more expensive for whatever reason.

$1500, worthwhile to do. $5000, yikes not so much. That's crazy how big a price difference that is. Individual colours here in Canada are $5000 cad. Not sure what a colour like sakhir orange would be. $8000-$9000 cad would not be surprising.

M4 doesn't have auto and DCT is a no go, due to long term reliability and the potential cost of repair. This is the main reason. Also M4 doesn't have Xdirve as we have winter in Toronto. Lastly I don't like the look of the M4 as the rear quarter panel is just way too long and the M3 while very nice doesn't have the sporty low look of the 4 series in my opinion and it has DCT and no Xdrive. This will be the wifes car mainly while I save up for a manual pcar. |

Just order Coral Red and call it a day. It looks very similar. An amazing color choice, but I am biased

Coral red does not look anything like Sakhir Orange. Doesn't matter anyways not available on non M cars in North America. |
