A friend sent me this link on yahoo and I thought it was pretty cool. The actual car isn't made out of cloth, but the body skin is. Don't forget to check out the video at the bottom of the page under the pics.

If you listen to the interview with the guy in the vid, he said it was to spark creativity. Since it uses the space frame from the Z8 (I think) it doesn't need the sheet metal body for rigidity and strength. I personally like BMW's for the most part and think the concept behind this car is pretty interesting. I can't say I think this one is the best looking one they have made, but then again, not all prototypes look good no matter who built it. They aren't even going to produce any more of this car, it's going to their BMW museum in Germany.-60v6's 2nd Jon M.
