BMW GINA light

(Geometry and Functions in ‘N’ Adaptations)
Specs (speculations)

Exterior
The polyethylene-coated Lycra fabric is stretched across a mesh work formed from metal wires, with moveable aluminium structures electro-hydraulically controllable to allow the flexible fabric skin take on new shapes. The fabric can resist water, high or low temperatures and doesn’t swell or shrink.

head lamps
The headlamps are hidden until the driver turns them on, only instead of popping up cheesily, like an ’80s Pontiac Firebird, the skin opens to reveal BMW’s traditional round lights. Not that anything needs to open to see the light; the turn signals and taillights operate behind the fabric, shining through when activated. The eight-cylinder engine hides under a 1.6-foot-long slit that opens and closes in a manner that BMW likens to the top of an old-fashioned doctor’s bag.


Interior
-gauges located beside steering wheel

-expanding and contracting steering wheel


Engine
Speculations on the engine- turbo charged fuel injected v8-v10
(going buy size of the car and also looking at other BMW cars)

performance
Considering the Gina's light weight and aerodynamic build the top speed should be very high
with a fast acceleration.

0-60= 3.2-4.6

2009 BMW m5 lastest news

Have the German carmakers gone completely power-nuts? They sure have and nothing seems to be stopping them. New reports are stating that BMW has decided to pick up Audi’s (RS6) glove and introduce the 2009 M5 with a twin-turbocharged version of the current 507 Hp 5.0-liter V10 engine that could easily surpass the RS6’s 580Hp. MSN-Cars website supports that it may very well have proof of this through a series of spy pics featuring a faintly camouflaged BMW M5. And while one can’t be 100 percent sure of what we’re seeing in the spy pics, we can only think of one good reason other than that BMW is trying out its forthcoming DSG transmission, and that is a revised engine.
