Rolls-Royce's starlight headliner is very vulgar.

Re: C&D The Ten Most Decadent Options
Why isn't BMW individual in this list. I would say they are the best of the exclusive customization offered. From my point of view. They do offer the best options that I have seen so far.

Re: C&D The Ten Most Decadent Options
Pretty interesting list. Porsche's leather list is out of the park ridiculous. You can get the entire interior wrapped in leather...air vents...everything. Amazing.

They might not find the Individual interior that vulgar while they find the Designo as tastefull as this:

Well, this is of course not Mercedes' fault but the owners...

Pfff you have no taste It's spectacular. Nothing in a Rolls is vulgar!
I can think of some decadent BMW options that could have been in that list too, like the whole Individual range (if there's Designo interior mention, why not Individual???), nightvision and Head Up Display

Yeah, strange. As far as I know, Individual was there first as well. More TRADITION, like the BMW V12

I've said it several (well really only once) times that it reminds me of cheezy limo interiors with all the glowing shit.

It's probably because Individual don't do as extreme custom work as Designo does. If I'm mistaken I would love to see some very exclusive coach building or special order by Individual.

Exactly, as far as I know you are not able to do as horrid things with Individual as you may with Designo, e.g. mint green/purple leather and gold buttons.
