BMW Designed 787 VIP Business Jet


Last week at the Hamburg Aircraft Interior Expo, BMW group DesignworksUSA unleashed a few mock-ups of a concept 787 VIP business jet with all the bells and whistles -- and then some.

The design was approached with a fictitious Russian client in his mid-thirties in mind who "spends a significant amount of time traveling across the globe and needs an aircraft that function as a second home."

The end result is an ultra-luxurious interior that looks more like a nightclub than a 787. I was really wishing that strip of glass in the center of the floor looked out of the plane's belly and into the sky, but it looks like it just offers a glimpse into the 3-series BMW garage. Oh well. More pictures after the jump.
