Here's a new concept car from BMW. Code-named GINA, it's unique in that the outer skin, which is made entirely out of textile fabric is just pulled around a frame of metal and carbon fiber wires. Yep, it's cloth, not metal. The skeleton of the car is controlled by electro-hydraulic devices and can actually move and change shape beneath the fabric skin. With a car this cool, who cares about its mileage?

Everybody knows the BMW Gina now but I can't resist to show it on "this next" for those who don't know it yet.
BMW has unveiled the GINA Light Visionary Model concept, an innovative two-seater roadster that features a flexible and transformable outer skin made of special fabric material stretched across a moveable metal structure. Very impressive !
