BMW’s sinister-looking X7 Dark Shadow Edition has been announced for Australia, where only 10 units from the global allocation of 500 will become available, with deliveries expected to commence next March.
Customers can reserve a build slot for AU$5,000 (US$3,712) with only a few mouse clicks, but first they will have to decide whether they want the xDrive30d M Sport or the M50i.
Five of each will be offered, with the turbodiesel, which uses a 3.0-liter inline-six making 195 kW (265 PS / 261 HP) and 620 Nm (457 lb-ft) of torque starting at AU$188,900 (US$140,253) and the twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 petrol, rated at 390 kW (530 PS / 523 HP) and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft), being available from AU$215,900 (US$160,300).
