BMW GINA Light Visionary Model revealed - Autoblog

yes it's ugly...but watch the video. this car is amazing, and I think it's the 1st step to automotive revolution (imagine infinitely customizable cars...)

I can completely imagine a future where we will select a manufacturer, frame size, general design, and engine, and be able to customize body work with the touch of a button...and with the advent of color changing cloths...

Did he really have to explain what the words 'geometry' and 'function' mean? ahaha...

Interesting idea , but I'd never buy a car you could tear holes in with your keys though

I like the concept of being able to form the cars exterior by tweaking a few things..makes each car a bit different and stand out.

But it does open up a whole new ballgame of getting your car keyed.

Holy crap those headlights were sexy. Though I'd still think of 40 Year Old Virgin's "Name's 'Gina!" every-time I saw it though.

Exactly what I thought when I saw the thread title.

They should keep the front end in metal or glass and build a better body for it, imo

I like it! But they could stand to break it up a bit with some defined colours or shades. Right now, it looks more like a body with a sock pulled over it (which I guess it is?)... I need the illusion of actual panels. It's rare that I find myself liking the look of a car with the top down, but this is very nice indeed. The hood is the one area that I don't completely like.

The next Bond car maybe?
