BMW has sent the X7 through the Individual department. The hefty SUV has returned quite dark.
Nowadays, no car of the three major German brands can do without a variant from which all colors are extracted. They also understood that at BMW. The X7 had so far escaped such treatment, but now it comes anyway. The Dark Shadow Edition, BMW baptizes this version.
That name has not been lied to, because the X7 seems to be in the shade, it is so dark. Everything, except for the light units, license plate and logo, is dark in color. You might expect that the base color is also black, but if we can believe the name, it is packed with the M Sport package X7 dark gray. Frozen Arctic Gray is called the color. The accents that are usually made in chrome, such as the grille and the window frame, are black. The 22-inch wheels that come with the Dark Shadow are also black: Jet Black to be precise.
An M-sport exhaust system should ensure that you can hear the perhaps somewhat inconspicuous colored BMW. In the interior you do not quickly need sunglasses to view things. Yet we see a little more color here. The chairs and door panels are covered with leather in the color Night Blue. That contrasts nicely with the otherwise black upholstery. BMW will only deliver 500 of these Dark Shadows worldwide. Three of them are coming to the Netherlands. A price for the special edition has not yet been announced.
