today I had a little trip to Germany to manage some things
on my way back to Austria I saw two BMW i8 hybrid prototye cars driving in the opposite direction
they had this typical graphics all over the body to hide the real body shape
driving in the opposite direction, I had no chance to take a photo, but I've found a pic online of an absolutely identical looking car

I never understood those graphics. Sure they make it slightly (very slightly) harder to see the shape but it's not like you can't easily tell what the car will look like. I think the camo where they add panels, etc works better but you cant do that for aero testing.

They really need to fire the guy who designs the rear window areas....
What is with the dolphin wing....

I almost bought a new 6 series convertible.....till they put up the roof after my test drive and I got a look at the rear window...
