Late Sunday afternoon in the capital, I just came back home from a long bike ride, hot like hell today, time so for Bling! This very fine BMW X6 in gold was by reader Pebo888 here in Beijing, thank you for the pics. Gold seems painted, not a wrap, and this big BMW is simply blinding the eye, in a good way…

The X6 is a popular SUV, some say China is the biggest market for the X6 worldwide. BMW hasn’t confirmed that yet but I certainly wouldn’t be surprised. Sadly, customized X6-es are relatively rare, I only saw two other crazy examples, one wrapped in silver & lime-green near my home, and one nasty matte-back Hamann Tycoon in the Sanlitun beer district. The BMW X6 is imported into China and doesn’t come cheap, price starts at 1.06 million yuan and ends at 2.06 million yuan. BMW officially only sells the 3.0 V6 and the 4.4 V8 in China but the more powerful versions are available on special order and the tuners can get you whatever you want.

Brilliant BMW in Gold, approved!
