On top of the usual equipment available on the 500, the cabin gets standard bi-color Poltrona Frau leather upholstery, automatic air conditioning system and a clothing hanger on the passenger headrest.

“Standard equipment” that will interest the ladies includes a Guerlain case containing La Petite Robe Noire Eau de Toilette, Eau de Parfum and Eau de Parfum Couture (each in 100 ml size), as well as a makeup kit, black mascara and nail lacquer. Guerlain also throws in a dress cover bag and a key ring.
