BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo by Trussardi - Click above for high-res image gallery
Typically when a fashion house and an automaker team up on a collaborative effort, the result comes in the form of a premium hatchback. The
Fiat 500 by Gucci unveiled recently in Geneva serves as one example, the
Diesel edition that preceded it, another.
Yves St Laurent and
Kenzo have each applied their talents to the
Citröen DS3, and countless designers have created special edition
Minis for the annual
Life Ball event.
The latest, however, comes in a decidedly larger form. And given the Italian roots of the designer in question, it should come as no surprise that they've turned to a Gran Turismo - the
BMW 5 Series GT, to be specific - for this special edition.
Celebrating the centennial of Italian fashion house Trussardi, this special 5GT is being released by
BMW's Italian subsidiary. It's distinguished by such special touches as a unique metallic brown paint job with matte gray trim replacing much of the brightwork, 20-inch split-spoke alloys, an interior decked out in special beige glove leather with contrasting stitching, and of course, the requisite Trussardi logos abound.
If your Italian is up to snuff you can read all about it in the press release
after the jump, but the gallery of high-resolution images below needs no translation.
Thanks for the tip, David!
