'A tribute to the craftsmanship and beauty, the B.500 “MAI TROPPO” interpreted by Bulgari is the quintessence of the Italian Dolce Vita. A true gem, embellished by an extreme attention to detail and the unmistakable marks of Bulgari’s Roman origins.

Exterior

  • Gold infused saffron paint inspired by the Roman sunset
  • Roman sunset tinted glasses
  • Specific "Stella" wheel
  • Saffron silk capote
  • Enamel technique from jewellery included on exterior details, such as moustache and side bezels.
  • Jewel inserts on polished side tag crafted by Bulgari
  • Exterior and interior gold details are made by pvd technique, a more sustainable process that allows the achievement of coloured chrome parts.

Interior

  • Vintage silk foulard on the dash
  • Customized reusable brooch on steering wheel
  • Bulgari b.zero inspired steering wheel ring
  • Zero impact leather (poltrona frau) on the interior, the latest "impactless" evolution
  • Peacock interior
  • Gorgeous peacock carpet

This one-off adds gold powder from the scraps of jewellery production to the nuance of the roman sunset paint. The interiors feature preciousness alongside sustainability: whilst the dashboard is made with the heritage of the past scarves’ collections, a removable brooch made by the goldsmiths of the House is in the heart of the steering wheel.'
