Blacked-out editions of cars and trucks are all the rage today, and while most of them feel like half-assed money grabs, BMW thought it would reveal everyone else the way it should be done by revealing its 2021 X7 Dark Shadow edition.
Now, BMWs definitely-not-a-1960s-vampire-soap-opera reference begins on the best foot by being based on the hot M50i version of the X7. In case you forgot, the M50i gets BMWs much-loved 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 that produces (in this trim) 523 horsepower and 533 pound-feet of torque.

To give the Dark Shadow edition its extremely exceptional luxury-goth visual, the folks in Munich are making sure that it comes with all the choices boxes ticked already. The only decision you need to make as a purchaser throughout the preorder phase is whether you want captains chairs in the second row or a bench.
You want specifics? Fine, fine. The Dark Shadow edition will come standard with the Driving Assistance Professional package, the Cold Weather plan, the Luxury Seating package (aerated and massaging seats, natch), the Executive bundle, the updated Bowers & & Wilkins stereo and on and on. You understand.
An interior thats ensured to match your Siouxsie and the Banshees trip t-shirt.

The Dark Shadow will come specifically in a shade of BMW Individual Frozen Arctic Grey Metallic and features all the black Shadowline cut you could ever desire, using a truly dark and, uh, shadowy exterior unlike some other producers (Rolls-Royce, were taking a look at you).
Inside, BMW keeps it special by offering the Dark Shadow a Night Blue Alcantara headliner, Night Blue and black two-tone leather seats with contrast stitching, and great deals of Night Blue Nappa Leather all over the upper control panel, armrests and doors. BMW also selected its distinct Fineline wood trim and aluminum inserts to set things off..
Its all pretty moody and significant and certainly feels more Jason Lee in The Crow than Hayden Christensen in Life as a House (which is a good idea), and it might simply be our preferred variation of the currently likable X7. If you like it too, you may desire to preorder one of the 75 units prepared for the US market, which will require a $1,000 deposit against the $120,490 asking rate with production set to start in Q4 of this year.
2021 BMW X7 Dark Shadow edition is for executive goths only.
