BMW i3 and i8 Starlight Edition to have 24-karat gold dust

ABU DHABI: Here is something special that BMW is offering to its customers. The German luxury automaker has brought a new special edition for its customers and the proceeds will go to charity directly. This special edition is called the “Starlight Edition” and is made on the i3 and i8 models.

BMW i3 and i8 Starlight Edition

The Starlight Edition of the BMW i3 and i8 have a dual tone paint job on the outside. However, the special thing about this is that the colour is progressive. The front section is painted in golden colour and the rear is given the black scheme. However, the way the golden colour merges into the black seems to be a hard work. The car also has 24-karat gold dust put on the body paint.

In fact, according to the German automaker, the transition of gold to black colour required a special process to ensure the smoothness. Also, the company had to get utmost precision for the application of gold dust on to the paint. This process had to be done by hand as it required four layers to be put in. Moreover, to bring in further depth to the visuals, six layers of the original BMW ColorSystem paint job has also been done.

BMW i3 and i8 Starlight Edition INTERIOR

Apart from the exterior, the interior of the Starlight Edition BMW i3 and i8 have also received some additions. The same gold colour tone has been added to the dashboard as well, which includes the air conditioning vents, steering wheel, and the side sills.

The BMW i8 is presently the most progressive sports car in the entire lineup. It looks like an extremely low and wide car from the front and is very aerodynamic. The combination of the petrol engine and the electric motor can do wonders to the car by bringing in exceptional power. The car can sprint to 100 kmph from a standstill in just 4.4 seconds.
