Posted 11th October, 2011 in BMW | Leave a comment
BMW performance specialist, Tuningwerk, from Puchheim in Munich has developed the NR 7s program for the long wheelbase 7 Series model.
Powered by BMW’s trusty 4.4 L twin-turbocharged V8 unit, the NR 7s is offered with two levels of output. Firstly, the GT Edition, which develops 540 hp/400 kW and 750 Nm of torque. That’s enough to propel this luxury barge to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.2 seconds and onto a governed top speed of 307 km/h (190 mph). If that doesn’t satisfy your needs, there’s the RS Edition. Good for 720 hp/529 kW and an insane torque figure of 1090 Nm, the RS thunders to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds before running out of steam at 350 km/h (217 mph).
Both models wear the company’s carbon aerodynamic package and larger wheels, which hide much-needed carbon-ceramic brakes. Inside the cabin, Tuningwerk can offer bespoke upholstery or components from the BMW Individual range.
Prices start at € 169,800 for the GT Edition, which is also available in xDrive form as well as 6-gear sport automatic transmission, while the RS version will set you back € 198,000.
Tuningwerk can also provide a car hand-over with the option of driver training in Munich – including hotel and flight.
