Default Re: BMW Cloth car

That's fantastic, almost organic with a skin covered skeleton. I agree with Northy, I think the trick will be perfecting the materials for use at speed. I wouldn't be suprised if we start to see fabrics used in parts, if not the entire body, soon. I can imagine the 'eyelid' style headlights and organic looking spoilers etc. being relatively easy to achieve. Exciting stuff!

Edit: The bit about speed, they were covering planes with fabric for yonks weren't they... hmmmm. I would imagine cost will be the biggest problem :-/
