The BMW 7 Series is the most luxurious car BMW has to offer and when presented with such an exquisite piece of workmanship, the car deserves to be celebrated as such. World-class cuisines and luxury experiences are truly the perfect partnership and it is all too special that we at BMW Group Malaysia indulge our loyal customers with such an experience that would touch and complement their five senses. All of our esteemed guests thoroughly enjoyed the dinners and I can’t wait to share the experience with all of the AFC viewers.”
