Cool Shaston & Lumma Widebody BMW 760LI









Quote:
Shaston, a Switzerland-based international distributor of Windows Mobile devices, just sent us these photos of a BMW 760Li Individual, modified with parts from well-known BMW-tuner Lumma. They didn’t give us a ton of details, but thankfully we’re equipped with a pair of eyeballs to make some observations of our own.

Lumma’s products are beginning to form a consistent shape throughout their BMW line and this 7-Series is no different. The front bumper on this 760Li is clearly from Lumma with many Lumma-inspired features. Wide fender arches flare up the front and the rear, giving the car a more aggressive, sportier profile. They’re a little out-of-place on the luxury 7-Series, but we think it might look a lot cleaner if the arches were molded on and blended in with the body.

There are several vent additions on the vehicle, from the front to the rear with a stylish rear bumper featuring a diffuser between the quad-tipped exhaust. It’s worth noting that the front grilles and mirrors have been swapped out with carbon fiber pieces.

There’s no word if the twin-turbo 6.0-liter V12 gets any power upgrades. It doesn’t need it though, with 554-hp and 553 ft-lbs of torque.

Shaston didn’t disclose much to us other than the first demonstration car is located in Switzerland and that this vehicle (or tuning package) will be launched in three weeks with “the most advanced computerized management.” We’re curious to see if Shaston ties in Windows Mobile products to their vehicle. Hopefully it’ll be the new Windows Phone 7, tying together automotive technology brilliance with wireless technology.

Fog lights AND LED lights?? Really???
Wow, are they really THAT desperate to squeeze LEDs into their bumper???

I like the width of the rear tires, makes the car look even meaner than it already is but I can't say I like the rims. I'm just not a big fan of lip type rims.

..I find it hard to like kits that look "glued on" with edges showing aganst original body.. the width is awesome but added vents and seam lines seem to make the car busy... to busy

Lumma usually does some good stuff. the rear looks pretty good, but I think the front would be better without the LEDs

the front look ok, the side skirts look cheap; same for the LED they are too small.

The Rear view look nice though

Too much for a 7 series.

And damn, those rear tires look wide, wondering about the wheel spec.

Isn't that for the Cruise control sensor?
Not really digging the design, seems like they were trying to make the front end look like an Audi...
Otherwise, the massive wheels and tires are amazing!

That is correct. The large rounded globe that looks like a security camera dome in the bottom of the front bumper is the stop&go long range cruise control radar sensor. The night vision camera is located between the first and second vertical slat from the right in the right kidney grill (see first picture in post #1). The F01/F02 models without the night vision camera have 13 vertical slats per grill and those with the night vision camera have 9 slats per grill.
