While the silver looks cool I can't help but think about another German product that had skin made of iron oxide and aluminum-impregnated CAB.

My Ride: 08 550 Carbon Sport Almost everything factory, but no sound upgrades.
I am surprised. I read this story (w/video) on FoxNews.com yesterday afternoon.
Usually our member spy gurus are way, way on out on top of what the Bimmer people are doing.

Just think, no more long afternoons detailing. Simply drop it in the washing machine, cool setting on the dryer and stretch it back over the frame...

Wow.
Out of the box thinking. I am glad to see that it is still being done. That is where true innovation comes from.
