For the interior, customers have the choice of different embroidery options on the Alcantara headrests and backrest cushions. The car also comes with an Alcantara headliner done in Ivory White and Canberra Beige. The seats are upholstered in an exclusive Nappa leather and BMW says that this car gets a new 'fine-wood trim' with wooden inlays in the roof handles clasp, rear seat belt clasps and rear-centre armrest cup holder. 

The mechanicals remain identical to the current 740Li M Sport model with power coming from the same 340hp, turbocharged straight six engine, that is also found in the impressive BMW 340i M Sport
