New 760Li here by Thijs

Shortened this post a bit.

So, I'm Thijs, I'm from the Netherlands. And we (my dad and I) had a 760Li individual on order which has now arrived. You can find pictures when you scroll down.

Individual show car at BMW welt:

NICE choice! And welcome to the forum.

I had considered the piping on my individual as well and had it on my original order but after they told me that that would add another month+ to the delivery time I told them that I can do without the piping

I so hope that BMW is considering to release an xDrive version of the 760Li ...

special request interiors are those which have options in it which you can't find in the catolog.

We ordered contrasted piping on the seats and headrests, as well as around the floormats and foothrests.

I'll get you some pictures once it is here.

Where are you from by the way?

Yeehaa! it finally got here! It took four months from ordering, but it has been well worth the wait.

It arrived this morning at the dealership and delivery will take place this Saturday.

Here are some first pics, better ones will follow later after delivery.

Enjoy!

Nice!

Same interior I have and from the looks of it the same options too

What are they doing to the car though? Why did the technician have to remove the cover underneath the steering wheel???

This is Champagne and rubyblack.

They are fitting a GPS tracking systeem to the car. That is a requirement to get the car insured.

You are right, I just noticed that the food wells are the same color as the seats, in the pictures it comes across as a lighter color than champagne. Mine is Platinum which is a bit more into the white than beige. Still a beautiful interior

One thing I noticed is that the two side pieces (left and right of each screen) on your rear entertainment screens are in beige whereas on mine they are black. Must be the difference between the Platinum and Champagne configuration...

They outfitted mine with a tracking system too. But they don't tell and or show the owner of the car where they actually installed the tracking system. Apparently, owners of cars outfitted with these tracking systems where the ones that stole the cars by disabling the tracking system and parking the car in some parking garage, then claiming the car got stolen and collect the insurance money...

Yes these pictures arenīt the best. In real life the colour isnīt as white, more yellow/white wine like.

That these two side pieces of the screens are in colour now is new this production year. At least for Individual, I donīt know if that is also for regular 7īs.

Crazy stuf, stealing your own car. Fitting the GPS tracking system is quite a job, they removed quite a few panels.
