The Options 719 pack includes a new colour option which is Galaxy Dust Metallic combined with Titanium Silver 2 Metallic. BMW says the new paint finish has a unique flip-flop characteristic which sees it change shades under sunlight. Then, there is the new seat with integrated heating and different materials and finishes to choose from. BMW is also offering two alloy wheel options under the ‘719’ custom pack which are aero and icon. These wheels are done in matt black and matt silver and have a six-spoke, contrast-cut design. These wheels are made of Aluminium, with milled filigree ribs.

There is an aero package on offer as well, which includes cylinder head covers and intake snorkel covers on both sides. Both covers are made of brushed Aluminium, featuring old-school ‘Streamliner’ design from 1920s and 1930s.
