    The BMW cars that could have been

    I checked al the forums, didn't see this yet. If it's a repost please feel free to bitchslap me.

    Twenty-five years ago, BMW Technik was established to "develop innovative, forward-oriented vehicle concepts" like this never-before-seen Z1 shooting brake. Looking at the concepts that never reached production is like gazing into a world where BMW never became BBW.

      indeed a repost, but a very old one. Only the OGs would know about it.

      Cool link.

      Lol at the fuckin square steering wheel in the van.

        sweet stuff

        BMW calls this shooting brake the Z1 Coupe, but it's really the predecessor to the BMW Z3 M Coupe. Technik actually developed a four-wheel-drive version of this vehicle, one that hasn't been seen in public until now. Let's add this up: steel monocoque, plastic body, plastic floor, vertical doors, two seats, wagon back, half E30, half E36. If that doesn't equal awesome, we don't know what does.
        well said.

              Man, all those are sooo ugly. At least z29 is probably fun to drive though....

                    The Z29 would have been sick minus the doors and if it was slightly more rounded off.

                            They all look strange the only one that I liked was the E1 for some reason...kinda glad none of them made it into production though.

                              The z29 looks like an uglier version of the Z4 coupe
