BMW unveiled the GINA Light Visionary Model concept car on June 10, 2008 and shows the direction of how BMW’s design may take. The concept car uses fabric as the skin over a wire frame and carbon fiber and allows drivers to change the shape of the car at will.

The flexibility of car can be seen when the car door or bonnet opens and it is also much lighter as it is made out of light weight materials. The BMW Gina Visionary Model concept car may or may not find its way into production but it may be the precursor of new material alternatives that are lighter and more fluid.

In the video, Chris Bangle gives us a first impression of the ideas behind the process of sculpturing an experimental study.

Apparently this talented guy in Lithuania turned the initial form of a junker Mercedes CL into a stylish end product that looked like a cross between a Ferrari and a Ssang Yong. The modification involved incredible amount of effort using lots of polyurethane foam to shape its body equipped with monster looking thirty inch rims. The masterpiece was on display for the public and I wonder if it runs as good as it looks.

This was an unexpected happening in Manhattan where no vehicle were spared at the Briggs Auto Plaza and in the airport parking lot. Some of the damages were so bad to the extent that the vehicles could not be driven.

Here are two fantastic Ford FA commercials that features the same animated furry monster in different scenario settings. Great fluid animation with a weird twist that exaggeratively show how spacious the Ford KA is. It gets even better in the sequel with the baby furry monster getting really nasty on the people. One of the best automobile commercials in my opinion.
