BMW Individual debuts 760Li Sterling

If you want a BMW 760Li that's even more luxurious than the already luxurious stock 760Li, and don't want to take it to an armorer or coachbuilder who will stretch the rear doors and add a limousine partition to the inside, BMW Individual has something a little more low key on the menu. BMW Individual is a customization division without the company, one that lets customers tailor their cars further by specifying unique materials for the interior, as well as create unique paint colors. The customization process doesn't stop there, as beyond the special trim selections offered by BMW Individual for each particular model, customers can go to BMW Individual Manufaktur, a division of BMW Individual, for even more personalized modifications to their cars.
