As we all know BMW can’t give us an answer and as they don’t have that information then no one does.
I could be wrong, but the coupe posted here was a 75 model -- if someone finds the thread it will verify exactly the color and year but it definitely was a rare blue --
I am sure others will chime in, helps to be patient
Mintgrün and Pastellblau are rare colors as you know. There were 18 1974+ colors available and both mentioned here are specific to 1974/1975.
A total of 1,275 CSI’s were built for ‘74/‘75. If you take that number and divide it by 18 colors you get a likely max of 70 pastellblau CSI’s. In reality however, it was far from an even color spread. I think we all know that metallics like Polaris and Fjord still dominated in these years.
The true number is likely far less than 70. Even with a high water of 70, spread that number across Europe and North America. One isn’t likely to see more than two pastel CSI’s in one place - ever.
Or, for that matter, two Mintrüns!!

I love that color. And Mintgrün too, but I have a Chamonix over blue 1970 2800cs so I'd have to swim against the stream.Here.....

1975 Pastell Blau 2.5 CS
Hi all, thought I would start with an introduction but, well, the sign in name pretty much covers it ;) This is long overdue but its time to share / document / justify this cars little journey from loved to left and loved again, Before I get into "The Story" here she is - at least at the point...

Perhaps likely to be more 2.5 variants in this color, in that time, than 3.0csi's.
The only way to leverage BMW's information is to start submitting VIN numbers (one at a time) by a bunch of different people - then compile the information. sounds like a major task ... but its just sorting out the info that they already have ... i am happy to be one of the people obtaining info.
They won’t let you do that anymore. I’m surprised they just can’t do a data dump on every vin and color
if everybody on the forum asked for a particular VIN - assigned in random ... couldn't we get the info? over a period of time - not slamming them with requests at one time. i have asked about a certain VIN previously. or am i missing something?
They use to give me 12 build dates and color at a time, that ended four years ago.

You won't see many E9s, but you'll see some 2002s! In some lights, it looks like my yas marina...
