For this exercise in excess, the Bavarians are slathering the new M850I in a bespoke shade of frozen Barcelona blue paint, and a ton of trim upgrades, plus a two tone blue and white interior. We don't know what it's gonna cost to own one of these things, but we're guessing it'll be well above the $111,900 asking price of a base model M850i.
