This is the reason....there is no shortage of pigment or special care...BMW is putting this disclaimer on there b/c the ONLY way you can get these colors is to custom order your car...for most of us who are ordering it doesn't matter, but for the soccer mom who wants to shop monday morning and pick up monday evening, they are basically saying that these colors will NOT be on dealer lots...they can only be ordered....that's it.
