# Lavish Leather Autos This Leather-Covered BMW X6 M is Sleek and Unusual By Corinne Guirgis | Published 2011-05-31 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leather-covered-bmw References: [visboo](http://visboo.com/leather-covered-bmw.html) & [techeblog](http://www.techeblog.com/index.php/tech-gadget/world-s-first-leather-covered-bmw-x6-m) The most lavish and extravagantly decked-out cars are usually the ones where practicality takes a backseat to style and exclusivity. Such is the case with the leather-covered [BMW](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-concept-skytop) X6 M, where the leather extends from the interior all the way outward to create a sleek and stylish luxury ride. The rawhide-covered exterior is the first of its kind but you won't see this unique design just anywhere. This custom car is exclusive and truly one-of-a-kind. Hopefully its owner doesn't live anywhere where rain, puddles or extreme heat might be a problem!
