It is no surprise that Estoril Blue has been on of the most popular colours among BMW customers because it is not in your face but it is certainly not boring. When it comes to the new 7-Series, this colour is not available which means you will need to dip into BMW Individual. Thanks to Abu Dhabi Motors, we now know what the range-topping M760Li xDrive looks like in the eye-catching colour.
Aside from being the most upscale model to wear the BMW badge, it’s also insanely fast for a vehicle of this size and weight. With a monstrous 6.6-liter V12 packing a pair of turbochargers, the all-wheel-drive 7 Series provides the driver with 601 horsepower (441 kilowatts) and 590 pound-feet (800 Newton-meters) of torque. It’s good for a sprint to 60 mph (96 kph) in just 3.6 seconds before topping out at an electronically capped 155 mph (250 kph). An optional M Driver’s Package will loosen up the limiter to unlock a maximum velocity of 189 mph (305 kph).
For a car that tips the scales at a hefty 5,128 pounds (2,326 kilograms), these are some amazing performance numbers and we’re beginning to understand why BMW won’t come out with an M7. This will do just fine for 99% of the people in the market for a big sedan delivering supercar levels of performance.
