Also, you may be able to tell by the model year of the car. I believe Interlagos was an early M3 color in 2008-09. LeMans blue was then an option after that replacing Interlagos. Any early model LeMans or late model Interlagos is very rare and would indicate a custom color order.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Le Mans and Interlagos were both offered until the end of the e92 model cycle. I don't know if Le Mans was introduced later or not, but I'm pretty sure Interlagos was definitely there from start to finish.

Edit - Le Mans was introduced in 2009. In 2008 Interlagos was the only blue, but from 2009 to 2013 both were available as OEM colors.
