BMW has announced a special Bang & Olufsen, Individual edition of its 6 Series Gran Coupe.

Promising to combine the design and engineering prowess of both companies in a single object, only 10 of the vehicles are set to roll off the production line.

Bang & Olufsen is a Danish company that produces high-end audio equipment, along with TVs and telephones.

As well as being rare, this 6 series will also be incredibly fast, thanks to a special competition package of features including a twin-turbo V8 with 575hp on tap – the most powerful engine the company produces -- and a choice of rear-wheel or all-wheel drive.

Available in two understated exterior colors -- Brilliant White Metallic or Dark Graphite II Metallic -- the car's interior is also equally subtle in terms of finish. The seats are covered in handcrafted Merino Leathers and the door panel and dashboard inserts are black piano wood.

Then there's the Bang & Olufsen sound system. It features 16 separate active loudspeakers, each dressed in a brushed black aluminum cover for a combined 1200 watts. The finishing touch is a set of matching black BeoPlay H6 high-end headphones.

Away from music, because this is an ‘Individual' edition, the car comes with pretty much every comfort as standard, including active driver aids and infotainment options that the company offers.

BMW hopes to start delivering the first cars this summer and warns potential customers that orders are being taken on a first come, first served basis.
