It wasn't made by BMW, but had its V-12 powering it. The Italdesign Columbus could be one of those vehicles that the "Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Act of 2015" allows 325 cars a year or less to be made by small manufacturers.

@@RomainSandt Ital Design is no joke, actually top, I was thinking exactly the same thing, it's a duplex flat, but more drivable than the average motor home, the v12 is awesome but maybe overkill..
Minds Eye Design, thanks for your reply! Although I do think it’s important for the education of viewers who are a not ‘car guys’. Speaking as a car guy, I have never seen most of these - so great content. I would suggest featuring the bubbletop car with other bubbletops, or just with other wild custom show cars - there’s a boatload of them out there!
You gotta love the Columbus design having exactly ZERO similarities to any other BMWs^^ No double kidney grill, no side lines or edges, nothing. Just a sailboat for the road. Amazing
My favorite the Oldsmobile Toronado Jetway verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry Rare 3 speed automatic transmission front wheel drive V8 425 big block built on the front wheel drive package of the eldorado toronado cars the same frame was also use on the GMC motor home of the 70 the Jet way was use for air port and hotel coach services .
The columbus is a great vehicle, it would make a great electric or hybrid vechle now. Can you do a video of vehicles specially made for movies. Like the futuristic ones from Back To The Future, etc.
Okay, I understand that that Columbus car looks weird from the outside, but it looks as spacious and comfortable on the inside as the starship Enterprise. I want it! I want it now! 😭
As much as I've seen this vehicle get positive comments by far the most of all 300 videos on this channel, I cant believe it never made it to production. Such a shame.
it was because this car was a compact car, And that very good brand also had other concepts and was just starting to ride cars. THE GURGEL IS VERY GOOOOOOOOOOD CAR.
I remember when the Ital Design Columbus was new. I remember seeing photo's of it in car magazines. I always thought it was very cool. The sea ranger was designed in Italy by Luigi Colani. Thanks.
What do you know about GURGEL??????????????? The Motomachine was sold for the public, I have one in my family... What do you know my friend, you should first ask a brazilian that know about cars... FNA
At the Cost of looking Silly??!! The Columbus is the coolest thing I've seen in van designs, I'd move the center driver seat over to a normal location to make room for another front passenger seat, lose all of the lower seats and kit the thing out as a mini camper.
Yes indeed, two opinions opposite one another. I agree with you, silly writers, I assure you, this this a perfect example of why I keep docking their pay a beer each day.
Lets go commandeer that airmobile from the national museum, figure out exactly what allowed it to get 43 miles to the gallon and create new versions that can handle biofuel and get the same if not better still mileage or put a biofuel digester in the back of a natural gas powered truck or trunk of a car and make the vehicles fuel onboard and never need natural gas or petrol for another vehicle again!!!! The Optica sounds like it was shut down for the mere fact that it could compete against automobiles and/or fuel milege as well as competing against helicopters Most of these were pretty cool! I liked most the air powered vehicles caught my eye for sure, one could add peddle power to this to help out and or in the even there was not enough wind! I liked the ranger, and both aircrasfs shown!!!
The Duckling Homestead and Gardens --> I had the same thought about the Optica! It appears some of the competition were actually afraid of the superb design and performance.
Number 13 (Optica): This was definitely NOT quieter than normal airplanes its size. A sample was at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in ~1980 for evaluation. The airplane made the loudest, most annoying whining noise I've ever heard. Visibility may have been great, but you could hear it 10 miles.
Correct me if I´m wrong, but the last car had a 1959 Caddy bumper, 1959-1960 Lincoln headlights, 1961-1962 Chrysler dash, 1979-1989 Ford steering wheel, 1960 Desoto tail fins & lights and a 1958 Caddy bumper (rear). What did I miss?
The Columbus would have made a great van design if it were a little shorter and if either Toyota, or an American company produced it. A V8 combined with a well built automatic transmission like what Toyota produces would have been an excellent combination and would have done well in North America. I wouldn't touch anything made in Europe and sold in the America's, all over priced, over engineered pieces of dung.
Columbus is nice and so is that last Cadillac looking futuristic car but that Toronado I'm in love with it 💓 AQC Jetway 707 lol I'd just call it my Limonado 😁
anybody think the tandem rear axle on the olds toronado look kinda familiar ? looks to have the same chassis as that odd GMC front wheel drive motorhome (which used olds toronado front drive setup )
EXCELLENT PRESENTATION! a great glimpse of 10 of the oddest, with hundreds more to be added in future videos. As time permits, I'll offer some suggestions!
I liked the toranodo limo, I saw one of them when I was in my 20's They were made well. That was over 20 years ago. I would buy one of i could find one now. Also. Thanks for the video !!!!
Love that Columbus....... But 20 feet long ? - The narrator reckons 20 feet is enormous, but most luxury cars these are around that length. Maybe not so many back in the 90's though. Actually, looking at the seating and floor space, I'd say it's more like 30 feet long !
One thing I learned from the old "T" tops of the 70's was that they will bake your brain right out of your ears. I credit those "T" tops for my baldness. I wonder if I can sue?
#4 could be brought back as electric,. Families would love it. Much room, comfy, nice interior, kids and families would love it. Famly weekend van or for camping. 🤗
That boat-mobile would have been my favorite if you could actually drive it out on the water like an aqua car. That being said, I'm torn between the Olds super limo and the BMW shuttle bus as my favorite on this list. I'm a huge fan of Oldsmobile, and I love combining cars that don't match, like a fast grocery getter, or a convertible station wagon. Here you've combined a limousine, a station wagon, and a semi truck, all into one. Give it some serious HP, a targa roof for the front seats, and maybe pop the top off the back to make it an el camino style truck bed, and this beast is complete... And of course, the BMW minivan is just too cool in my opinion. This would make an awesome little travel mini RV. I had an Old Silhouette a few years ago and it was like driving a space shuttle. I imagine this would be a similar driving experience, but WAY cooler.
Car 11, the green Ferrari, while they *were* made with 4x4, that example in particular in rear wheel drive only. I don't know if it's a post-delivery conversion or if FERVER actually built 4x2's, but you can clearly see the front suspension on the Sothebys auction website.

HEY GUYS . NUMBER 4 SHOULD HAVE WENT INTO PRODUCTION WOW..DIRT FARMER MICHAEL USNAVYRETIRED ORG. FROM GA. LIVING IN THE COUNTRY OF PANAMA, BE SAFE TAKE CARE.( I WILL BE ALWAYS BE WISHING YOU AND YOUR WELL ALWAYS,THANKS GOD AND COUNTRY..
The sea ranger. An amphibious unimog, yes please. Would be expensive as hell but as an avid off roader and overlander I can't think of a better overland chassis to do it on.

Good on ya...! Nice work... totally subjective.
That would make it a 5 liter engine (61 X 5 = 305 cubic inches.)
@@jimburig7064 Good point..you're hired!
Great! When do I start?
These are all very cool I was glad to see the Olds Toronado / Vista Cruiser. I wouldn't mind owning one of those
That oldsmobile toronado limo, that 1955 Ford bubble top, and BMW Columbus, were my favorites.
I would love to drive the columbus, it is not a beauty, but definitely looks like it woul make an awesome van.
BMW Columbus looked practical. They should make it
Um, it wasn't a BMW, just used a BMW engine. It is actually an Italian concept car.
The engine was in the middle of it. Rear wheel drive. IT could make a high end passenger uber/lift transport
I liked it to. Much nicer than modern people carriers.
it does look like it would be very popular with uber drivers
@@e.rivera4251 it would make a good Uber...but replace the things like VHS with modern amenities. Actually with today's tech you could probally make it far better.
The BMW Columbus is a "crazy" car I would gladly buy.

It’s an ItalDesign Columbus
I'll take the sea ranger. An amphibious unimog, hell yes.
I really like the BMW Columbus...but I'd fit it out for traveling alone. You could live in that thing.
Me too I wish that there were more RV/Coach/Van's with tapered jetfighter bubble where you drive.
Yes! I would’ve love a tiny house roaming RV type fitted Columbus, that’s a sexy looking machine.
I love it, been in it... And it's not a BMW, just has a BMW engine. It was made by ItalDesign.
Still want it anyway

Cmon! #1 is just a Kustom/show car, NOT an attempt at a production car at all. You blew it by losing the theme.

The Columbus { No4 } is the best lookin if produced it would be great as a limo

No double kidney grill, no side lines or edges, nothing. Just a sailboat for the road. Amazing
I really like the columbus.
Yea... if i would choice between that han and a people carrier... it would not even be a choice.
I did not expect to see one of the best kerbal crackpots in a video about cars but this surprise is welcome nonetheless.
The Beatnik Bubbletop looks like a car you would find in the Fallout Game Series.
Indeed, and/or as a Hot Wheels car.
Musk would be proud of the Bubble Top. My favorite is the Oldsmobile Limo.
I would buy the Columbus. They should try to bring it back.
The Columbus Should Be Made
I'll bet that Bubble top is a hot as hell place to sit on a clear sunny day.
Was the Raincoat driven by the protaganist in Terry Gilliam’s 1980s dystopian movie, Brazil?
There’s several on here that I’d love any day with the Columbus and Sea Ranger being my top ones. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Great job.

I like the Gurgel look pretty straight forward on your small car needs
Gurgel foi a maior manifestação da criatividade brasileira para construção de carros em sua época,esse carro estava a frente de seu tempo.🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Pão com ovo
Finally a video with actual unique and interesting cars. Well done. Also, I'm pretty sure if BMW sold that van now it'd actually be pretty popular.
Cassie at 12:07 has a very high cuteness factor. Cheers!
Nooo! Her makeup is an abomination.
Whoever put this together must be young, all Oldsmobile Toronado's were front wheel drive. LOL
Thankyou Cassie,Barry from storage wars car last one
I wouldn't mind owning that ultralight plane. The perfect ultralight photography aircraft
Motomachine., from Brasil....i saw in the street
I only saw the BR 800
I like the 7/9 set BMW. With all the recreational vehicles getting around now, fitting it out with fridge, microwave, etc it would make a hit.
My favorites were #2 and the 20 foot long BMW
The BME Colombus is the first BMW to really catch my eye. I really like tge different desine
These days cars are boring as hell bland and tend to be really ugly damn shame people don’t have imagination these days
The gurgel is brazilian
The columbus is a great vehicle, it would make a great electric or hybrid vechle now.
Can you do a video of vehicles specially made for movies.
Like the futuristic ones from Back To The Future, etc.

@@mindseyedesign Perhaps the production would've been too costly for the time... Who knows, maybe some day they'll turn up with something similar.
I'd love to have an Italdesign Columbus and retrofit it to a class C RV.
The best part is the pretty girl at the end.
I stay
Gado D+
i would actually buy one of the oldsmobile limos and that bmw van. i like both of them a lot.
I wNt the bmw Columbus please.
it was because this car was a compact car, And that very good brand also had other concepts and was just starting to ride cars.

What did I miss?
The 1989 Ford Taurus rear axle. But who's counting.

I'll take the Columbus
BMW Colombus need to bring that van back.. I really like it.. I'll buy in any price.. das unique van..
Kongo for life and Afrika for life..
$9999,9999,9999?
BMW Columbus is amazing. It just needs to be an electric vehicle
The BMW Columbus was awesome! Jet Black Paint, nicer rims, limo-tint, updated electronics and a stripper pole. That would be a badass daily driver 😆👍🏻
but why the stripper pole, U tryna make a mobile strip club or what ?
That columbus would still be a show stopper today
#4 Columbus, I would tune up into a fancy motorhome, maybe electric powered

68 Oldsmobile Toronado 707 Limousine - Definitely something Elvis would have owned.
That BMW was freakin brilliant. Please put them on the market.
Thet wasn't a BMW at all. It only had a BMW engine, but it was a Italdesign concept car.

The girl at the end was the most interesting, so she gets my thumps up.
La Man my thoughts exactly. Lol
My thoughts exactly!
I think she is a Alien in a rubber suit . Notice the monotone color of the skin and long neck.
I second that emotion!
The thirst of YT commenters is real
I WANT the Toronado Limo! (Not really sure why, though)
ORANGE YOU GLAD YOU WATCH NUMBER 15.?
I liked the toranodo limo, I saw one of them when I was in my 20's
They were made well. That was over 20 years ago. I would buy one of i could find one now.
Also. Thanks for the video !!!!
Yeah. I was adding up the 5k car and cost of motor etc would be a gamble if you'd come out ahead but would be a great project to do.
I liked the BMW Columbus
I really liked the Columbus!
4:43 D A F?🤔 Its called Daf😂 Its a dutch Truck and former car Company. Greetz from the Netherlands
1/2 I liked because they were cool 😎. But thank god so much of them car's never mind it past prototype
I like the BMW Van
Favorite retro car for me would be the Mercedes C111. That thing looked slick! And I would agree that the Columbus isn't half bad.
C112! GAS GAS GAS!
The volani sea ranger is my favourite because it looks like an military vehicle
I love the BMW Columbus , i would buy that today if it was released on the market for sale.
I love the lavender bubble top one off. Very creative. I would like to know more about its stats, comforts and amenities.

The toronado is always a front wheel drive I have 1968
The dual rear wheels look like the same set-up as the 72-78 GMC motorhome. It also used a Toronado engine & transmission.
