BMW’s Individual Manufaktur branch has lifted the veil off of the 760Li Sterling, a one-off sedan designed to showcase the division’s know-how in manufacturing bespoke vehicles.
The 760Li Sterling was built jointly by BMW and silver tableware manufacturer Robbe & Berking. It stands out from a stock 760Li thanks to real silver plating on both kidney grilles, on the trim piece that adorns the trunk lid and on the exhaust pipe, and BMW emblems hand-crafted out of solid 925 sterling silver.
Discreet “Robbe & Berking” lettering on the C-pillars and on the trunk lid add a touch of elegance, while a low-key Singapore Gray paint job finishes off the overall look.
The silver treatment continues inside with trim fashioned out of exclusive hand-hammered sterling silver. Passengers are treated to seats upholstered in brown Merino leather with Robbe & Berking’s century-old logo embroided into the headrests, and the center console houses purpose-built silver goblets.
The silver stops under the hood, where the 760Li Sterling is powered by a stock twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter V12 engine that churns out 535 horsepower and 550 lb-ft. of torque. The sedan is capable of reaching 60 mph from a stop in just 4.5 seconds.
Precisely how much the one-off 760Li Sterling costs is not known but BMW says it is the most valuable bespoke model its Individual Manufacktur division has ever created in its 20-year long history.<![CDATA[
