BMW Malaysia unveils all-black 530i M Sport Dark Shadow Edition, only 36 units

BMW Malaysia has unveiled a limited edition 5-Series, the Dark Shadow Edition to start the new year.

It is based on the G30 530i M Sport variant, and is priced at RM392,800 which is a RM10,000 more than the regular car.

"Embodying the spirit of standing out, the New BMW 530i M Sport Dark Shadow makes a bold entrance into 2021, distinguishing itself in a limited-edition dramatic all-black design," said BMW Group Malaysia managing director Harald Hoelzl.

"This will set the stage for an extraordinary start to a new year," he added.

So, what do you get really for the additional amount that you pay?

Well, you get some kind of exclusivity as only 36 examples of this BMW 530i M Sport Dark Shadow Edition will be built.

The car also arrives in a stealthy all-black exterior package, comprising a Carbon Black body paint, Shadow Line trim, high gloss black kidney grille and black 669 M Performance 20-inch light alloy wheels.

Even the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) valve is finished in black.

It is worth noting though that the Shadow Line and M Performance wheels actually worth over RM37,000, so the RM10,000 extra over the regular 530i M Sport is quite a bargain.

Peek through the front wheels and you will see a gorgeous M Performance brake callipers in blue, a nice contrast to the exterior styling.

On the inside, you can make the car to be black-on-black with Black Dakota leather and blue stitching, or add a little twist with brown Cognac Dakota upholstery.

No change in the powertrain department, the 530i M Sport Dark Shadow Edition is powered by the B48 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol four-cylinder unit that makes 252hp and 350Nm of torque.

Output is then channelled to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Elsewhere, the car gets the standard equipment including LED headlights, Comfort Access keyless entry, four-zone climate control, 11-colour ambient lighting, 12.3-inch instrument cluster, Professional navigation system and 600 watt Harman Kardon surround sound system.

The new BMW 530i M Sport Dark Shadow Edition will be available for viewing selected dealerships in the coming months.
