Agreed. April fool’s jokes have become too obvious and too try-hard.

Nowadays bmw is so focused on making niche cars it wouldn’t surprise me if they took an x4; chopped the roof, and called it a pickup.

I wonder if that thing still exists somewhere. I’d hate to see it crushed just because it wasn’t road-legal or something. Hell, give it to the grounds department for carrying yard tools or whatever.
Or maybe they really did reinforce it in all the right areas, and an employee got to take it home.

It lives in BMW’s own parking garage of concept cars and one-offs.

They seem to hold on to the one off cars they make.

As with the original, those responsible for its creation again opted for a convertible body due to the existing strengthening elements.
So it really was built for more than just the camera. Neat!

As long as it started life as a real M3 with a real VIN, it’s probably still considered road legal after the modifications. Same as limo companies creating an extended wheelbase version of an existing car.

Yeah, I wasn’t sure if a modification like this would fail inspection or something (I have no idea how ze Germans regulate this stuff). Probably not, since it started life as a convertible and already had the appropriate bracing.
Glad it’s still around. I hate it when great one-of-a-kind concepts get destroyed.

worst part is, that would actually sell here in Australia.
