Neiman Marcus BMW 750Li to Hit Christmas Stores at $160,000

Like every year, Neiman Marcus has introduced its Christmas catalog in October for those who get a kick of early holiday shopping. This year’s list includes a special edition version of the all-new 2009 BMW 7-Series that has been carefully customized by the team over at BMW’s Individual department. We can’t but help wonder if this is the right time to launch a $160k car but we guess Neiman Marcus and BMW probably know better. -Continued

Based on the 750iL that’s equipped with a twin-turbocharged V8 engine, the Neiman Marcus Limited-Edition BMW Individual 7-Series has been treated among other things with special iridescent ‘Diopside Black’ metallic paintwork and ‘Champagne Merino’ leather interior with contrasting piping and trim. BMW’s Individual team also accented the interior with Piano Black trim elements and a new steering wheel.

In honor of the 7 Series' 31st anniversary, only 31 of the personalized 750iLs have been built. The Neiman Marcus customers who buy the car will be able to take delivery of the luxury sedans from the BMW Welt center in Munich, Germany in April 2009. But the treat doesn’t end there as they will also be granted insider access to BMW before hitting the road for a ‘short trip’ to Monaco, Nice and Cannes after which their cars will be shipped to the States.
