As a tribute to the UAE’s 40 years of unity, BMW will introduce in those markets a special edition of the 7-series - aptly dubbed “40 Years UAE Edition” - which will be unveiled at the 2011 Dubai International Motor Show. The model is based on the 750 Li and will come with Marakesh Brown paint job and Merino Platinum leather interior. The emblem of the UAE is stiched on the headrests and can be spotted on the iDrive control and on several other bits around the car as well.
Under the hood it will have a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 with direct injection - producing 407 hp and 600 Nm of maximum torque - and capable of pushing the car from 0 to 100 km/h (0-60 mph) in 5.2 seconds with 250 km/h top speed. Only 40 units of the BMW 7-series 40 Years UAE Edition will be produced.
