BMW 3-series future design concept
We’re used to seeing concept design studies for exotics like Ferrari and Lamborghini, and even a Corvette every now and then, but it’s not often that we come across designs for more mundane models such as the BMW 3-series sedan.

The design seen here is the creation of Coventry design school graduate Benedetto Bordone and previews a possible future design direction for the BMW brand.

The design features its own unique complex surface language and was created by Bordone as a realistic direction for BMW in the future for its core models. Read Article

This Benedetto Bordone person has no relationship with BMW, he's a freelancer looking for attention. He did the same thing with Alfa Romeo and Honda.

Spiderman called he wants his car back, and his theme painted on it. Im a big BMW fan but the front is uglier than chicken butt.

Ok... Flame Surfacing Is One Thing, But This 'Rendering' Looks More Like A Bad Acid Trip.

Personally, I Appreciated BMW Designs Far More When Form Followed Function, Because As We All Know - True Style Is Time Less, But Fashion's Only Now...

Note To BMW - Let's Return To Style Already... Ok?

If that's the direction their headed then the current generation along with the previous generation will go down in history as the best looking 3-series ever.

This guy doesn't work for BMW, and we perfectly know that BMW is tuning down the whole flame surfacing.

So much for the double kidney grill. Oh well, Bangle can't even make it consistent in his current lineup.

when and if it comes into production it will beat any and evry other car in its class.

Right now Audi is dereaming up a badly engineered, fwd, nose heavvy competitor and calling it "quattro" as a label. Some other mental midgets int he sam eorganziation are thinking about how to time the car for 2 years in a 'limited' garb while they hav no competitor from M.

and they hope to win.

haha

If it wasn't for the propellor, I couldn't even tell it was supposed to be a BMW.

Why not just show us what it will look like in 2050....

Interesting drawing, but I could design a more articulate premonition.
