Pimpin' Plane Makeovers

The BMW Aircraft Interior Reaches a New Altitude of Decadence

In case you can't stand to be in the air for hours without being reminded of your favorite German made car, never fear--the introduction of the BMW aircraft interior should settle your nerves. Contracted out to Embraer for its Phenom 100 and 300 models, BMW has pimped these plane interiors out to the nines.

Featuring beautiful white leather and wood accents throughout, the BMW aircraft interior is definitely reminiscent of one of the car manufacturer's higher-end road models. BMW actually first forayed into aviation way back in WWII, and it seems now they have decided to come full circle.
