The car has what can be considered the most elegant color combination, Titanium Silver on the outside with Black leather on the inside.

The BMW stereo works perfectly and has no blown speakers! It has the DSP system which can change the sound of the audio to make it sound like its at a concert hall, jazz club, or cathedral. It's incredible what this sound system can do!
