custom-edition Neiman-Marcus BMW M6

50 custom Neiman Marcus BMW M6 convertibles sold out in exactly 92 seconds on Wednesday, the automaker reported today.
The special edition model was listed in the North American Neiman Marcus Christmas Book.
The company began taking orders at exactly 12.00 p.m., and phone lines were almost instantly jammed with buyers attempting to secure their order.

BMW and Neiman Marcus announced the special edition model earlier this month.
The car features the same 500 horsepower V10 engine as the regular M6 convertible, which was first launched in June.

The Neiman Marcus edition features a custom Ruby Black exterior finish accented with an interior with Piano Black trim elements.
It comes with an 11-speaker Surround Sound stereo and six-disc CD changer. The drop-top grand tourer costs $139,000.

Muscle car meets Martha Stewart...

I've never met an interior designer that would know what to do with 500hp, but I'm sure there is a niche for this car...

I've always thought the "6" was too overdone in the sort of gaudy pimp-jock-gangsta way that you usually don't see from BMW.
The Neiman Marcus edition brings out the real character of the car.
Love the "Ruby Black" paint color...and really like the new hood....maybe it's my inner interior designer that's attracting me to this beasty.
