On the other hand, 8-Series Frozen Black Edition comes in Coupe and Gran Coupe versions. You may choose its body but the finishing will always be the same: matte black with an optional Shadow Line package, bearing black tailpipes and black kidney grille. BMW 8-Series Frozen Black Edition is completed with M sport brake calipers on the outside.
As for the interior, Frozen Black has M Sport black sears, a panoramic sunroof made of glass, a bespoke BMW headliner in Alcantara. All this is completed by Alcantara and Merino leather, with BMW Individual piano black trim. All this can be admired and felt under a great soundtrack coming out of the Bowers & Wilkins Diamond surround sound system.
