Polyurethane is pretty strong performance motor mounts use it that being said I thing it would take a brick through even then. Guess it depends on the thickness of it but little Rock 🪨 will undoubtedly bounce off I'd be more worried bout the cars around it with deflection off the material lol
@@THATDAMSPORTSHOWlol every motor mount uses it. Polyurethane is an extremely popular material.....it's in everything. Paints, plastics, rubbers, deck stain, etc. It has nothing to do with strength 🤦♂️
I live in a state where they put gravel down for winter, and with the right durable fabric I could see this being a good thing compared to a paint job, which takes a beating during the snowy months.
@mile_high_topher yeah same actually lol. Just like the oil and chips they do a lot of these back roads with instead of blacktop. It's horror on paint/Clear coat but on fabric it might actually do less damage
This car is mostly only made for design and aerodynamics, it's not a practical daily driver. I love their ingenuity to create such an easy way to look at new body concepts.
I remember seeing this car for the first time like 15 years ago and thinking it was the most incredible car I'd ever seen. And it STILL lives up to that today.
Love the Gina...shame they never made some version of it...the changeable organic flowing ines are stunning., the opening lights becoming expressive eyes, give a machine an animalistic believable character. If it were fully electric and range limited for city use only it would still be sensational at any pricepoint.
It was called BMW GINA. Remember this from years ago when bmw unveiled this futuristic technology stating it takes around 2hrs or so to fashion the skin around the car. Amazing experimental stuff from back then!
This channel really has a way of showing us new things we never knew existed. Feel free to comment how not new it is down below in case people missed that from the video.
@@jesperwall839 okay okay I get it, I'm not only commenting on this video alone but how I realized the channel always got dibs these days from the new Porche, Mercedes Nokia N8 and the Mercedes Space G Wagon, and with most of their other content. Their access is just crazy to me.
I’m a bit disappointed that you haven’t ever heard of or uttered the word Polyurethane (PU). It is a fairly common word. Gaining knowledge is fun, I also keep learning new things everyday which many times are already fairly standard knowledge in some countries.
Everyone who reads this, We don't know each other and we probably never will but I wish you all the best in life And the luck in the new world and I wish you all the best for what life has to offer. ❤
Why can't BMW keep evolving this style of design? If they made this into a "normal" car with a metal body it could easily be one of the best looking cars of the year
I love the design ❤ but there's so many moving parts... It's inevitable that the outer skin will fail with that many creases and wrinkles. Still looks cool 😎 but efficiency is my strong suit.
Só faltava isso agora, um carro feito de " lona" 😂😂😂 Imagina a barulheira que isso faria em altas velocidades e qualquer detrito voando na pista rasgaria tudo isso. 💥
kinda like that older show Viper. I don't get why these companies spend so much money on all of these concept cars to just store them away and not sell them. What happened to all the futuristic cars we thought would be out by now...oh yeah, they're all in storage collecting dust. I don't get it, do these companies not like money? 🤨
Thanks for posting this! I watched a video on this car about 10 years ago and it wasn’t the best quality but to see this now in broad daylight just shows how unique this concept is.. now my only question is how do you even wash something like that!?
Love BMW. Have owned them for many years because they are sturdy vehicles. Excited to see what ends up in production but I wouldn’t want to be in an accident in one of these. 🤔
YOOOO!! Imagine this for the enthusiast market... YOU COULD LITERALLY BUY NEW SKIN FOR YOUR CAR! And have multiple skins to choose from... and it wouldn't take as long as re-wrapping your car you literally just put new skin on it, button it up and done! THIS IS COOL!
I saw this model back in the early 2000's, and it immediately became a favorite. Anytime I was asked my sports car of choice? ..the BMW Gina. This car is just sexy
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Still the aerodynamics, and the body shape is killer, the split windows give it the appearance of a vintage Chris craft.
i'd call it va-gina the way the hood opens to reveal the engine.
You beat me to it
@@AAA-xc4zm 😂
Eso mismo pensé 😂
Os engenheiros foram criativos... com certeza foi essa a intenção do nome.
Yep. That's definitely why they call it the Gina. It's a hard I.
imagine seeing someone approach your car with a razor blade
Imagine finding out it made of kevlar fabric & you'd need a gun to pierce it!
This car also has an integrated brezn🥨canon
Lol you have to drive faster 🤣
..and then it heals itself and sends out a bolt of electricity..
Prodješ pored žbuna i auto ti ostane na njemu.
15 years later and this concept is still cool
bmw always was valid ever since rolls royce
Until some jackass comes by, takes a knife to it and ruins it. lol
after any accident, no spare part, please purchaee a new car
@@watb8689yeah its def the absolute least practical car ive ever seen. its cool to look at, but its moreso a piece of art than an actual car imo
15 years later and this concept is still a concept...
Imagine cruising at 100 and the road is filled with tiny sharp rocks 👀👀

Yeah, gotta protect the gina. It's sensative

BMW is crazy! I didn't actually knew.
Same I saw a video of this car over 10 years ago I think
Imagine getting keyed or worst, knifed
In 2023 this would definitely be a FLOP unless you buy it as a collectible
dayum 15 thats young
The fact that it changes shape is fascinating. But the shape of that opening reminds me of something else.
That's intended. Read the name again "Gina"... BMW Va-Gina xD
The coolest car you would never actually want.
Lies. I want this
@@MoonlightStaticmine
@@MoonlightStatic e46 m3 still looks way better
Old cars in general look better than today's overly glorified toasters on wheels
@@tjtjmich16p ....thats essentially a generational subjective thought process output of an opinion.
Imagine acting like polyurethane is some magic new material that hasn’t existed since tupperware
Feels like they should have used THIS car in the Kill Bill films.
Love the Gina...shame they never made some version of it...the changeable organic flowing ines are stunning., the opening lights becoming expressive eyes, give a machine an animalistic believable character. If it were fully electric and range limited for city use only it would still be sensational at any pricepoint.
BMW's designers are absolutely mind-blowing, really challenging the limits!
Pretty old thing
It’s so old lol. Like 15 years ago or more 😂
@Trogidy49 it's still impressive anyways.
Yes, exactly. A completely meaningless design study.
MR CHRIS BANGLE ........IS THE DESIGNER.😉
It was called BMW GINA. Remember this from years ago when bmw unveiled this futuristic technology stating it takes around 2hrs or so to fashion the skin around the car. Amazing experimental stuff from back then!
The interior looks like an alien spaceship from a 90 sci-fi movie. They should’ve let aliens dative it
Just so HAPPY to see one of these spam suggested videos and she isnt in it. 🙏🏻

@@JackThaRipper To me it is Jack!
Yeah, this was shown a couple of years ago.

So old but still sexy. Used it in présentations an research 14years ago...
It's like a morphing Terminator! Love this shape-shifing tech...bravo BMW!😊
If a rag stretched over a frame looks like a liquid terminator to you, then you need to see a specialist in stupidity.
I expected an alien to pop out of that hood.👽😁
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I saw the car in person in the BMW Museum in 2016, it's funny to see it out in the open now and nice to see it being given extra love :)
The “watch this” that kept happening was mad
this video is insane, the editing quality is so much better, i like the direction the channel is moving in
The front of the car splits open to look just like something I can’t mention the name here
Where your mind revolve around something sexuality everytime, you got issues. So yeah, no need to mention it.
The name.... BMW __gina
A vag!na , right ?
Just say it don't be shy !
@@changsangma1915 lol 😂
They knew exactly what they were doing with that name. Don't let the Weiner mobile anywhere near this.
Pop up headlights can make a comeback with this concept
The buffalo bill of the super car world

Bro anything for likes
Amen
You too
what new world?
Even though Im a scumbag piece of shit human who treats others very poorly so I can inflate my ego?
This is on next level 😊
Superb content ❤
Gina is a concept car showcased by BMW all around the globe and through social media for years.
When I saw the name and the opening on the hood, I had to make a “va-Gina” comment and saw that it had already been made. What were they thinking?
You would have to rewrap the entire care with one small cut. Would show easily!
Why can't BMW keep evolving this style of design? If they made this into a "normal" car with a metal body it could easily be one of the best looking cars of the year
Their convertibles like the Z4 essentially taken elements from the Gina.
I'd buy it for the looks even without the moving lines.
Absolutely sick. I'm about as intrigued as I am weirded out about this new kind of technology.
This car is 15 years old
Literally based on a decade old Z4 bmw this is not new technology bro.
Car of the future from the past
Inspired from the Sphinx cat 🥩🥩🥩🔥
Who ever named this car gina, totally knew what he was doing.
I love the design ❤ but there's so many moving parts... It's inevitable that the outer skin will fail with that many creases and wrinkles. Still looks cool 😎 but efficiency is my strong suit.
My dirty mind after seeing the hood😂
now only if they can make a reliable one, I am sold!
bmw is doing everything but making good looking cars.
Amazing videos with amazing cars!❤️
I love my German vehicles, but this one takes the cake! 😂😂😂
Só faltava isso agora, um carro feito de " lona" 😂😂😂
Imagina a barulheira que isso faria em altas velocidades e qualquer detrito voando na pista rasgaria tudo isso. 💥
Pior seria se fosse conversível, iria parecer uma vela de navio
Imagino as crianças brincando perto do carro, e um resolve pegar uma tesoura e recortar o carro pra mudar o design... 😂😂😂😂

PFF THESE TYPES OF CARS ARE LIKE THE CRAP THATS ON FASHION WALK RUNWAYS
Shape-shifting concept on a car has been my dream ever since I was a little child… and now it is possible!!😊
It would be cool if you could review the Renault DeZir concept...has very crazy looking interior.
BMW Ini Memiliki Kulit Bergerak yang sangat bagus sekali kawan...😍
Thanks for posting this! I watched a video on this car about 10 years ago and it wasn’t the best quality but to see this now in broad daylight just shows how unique this concept is.. now my only question is how do you even wash something like that!?
Anyone's gonna talk about the dude's pants? Where did you get these from? Those are dope af!
Back in 2008, BMW released this concept car Gina, with Lycra replacing body part ❤️
ABSOLUTE STUNNER
No more bumps, just folds - brilliant!
I love BMW. My 08 X5 had those lights that moved like eyeballs. Didnt even realize it until a while after. The lights on this one are badass😍😍
What happens in case of accident? The plastic will definitely come out and it will have lot of safety issues
Saw this car in person when I was 12-ish. I remember being shocked that something like this existed and I couldn’t forget this concept.
Love BMW. Have owned them for many years because they are sturdy vehicles. Excited to see what ends up in production but I wouldn’t want to be in an accident in one of these. 🤔
7:00 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 THAT IS INSANE
Any rating on impact safety and what if the children play with knives and scissors?
YOOOO!! Imagine this for the enthusiast market...
YOU COULD LITERALLY BUY NEW SKIN FOR YOUR CAR! And have multiple skins to choose from... and it wouldn't take as long as re-wrapping your car you literally just put new skin on it, button it up and done!
THIS IS COOL!
Its all fun and games until a drunk comes by with a knife. This will take keying a car to a whole new level! damn!
Qué pasada!!! Impresionante, elegante, deportivo, chulo!!!👍
So like, when you wash it..... do you get it dry cleaned?
They didn’t have to make the hood open like that 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I saw this model back in the early 2000's, and it immediately became a favorite. Anytime I was asked my sports car of choice? ..the BMW Gina. This car is just sexy
Nobody:
Owner calling insurance:
Yes, some kid was popping balloons and then popped my car too!!
I remember reading about this in top gear magazine many years ago. It's very interesting and extremely impractical.
This thing IS alive!
It's looks stunning but is it cut proof?😂 I mean I'll be destroyed by some jurk.
Mind blown this is my favorite car💝💝💝👌
I read about this thing in highschool in a Popular Science magazine. I never thought I'd see it in action.
*THE BMW 4SKIN*
Alien 👽 work for BMW💯
And that's why concept cars stay concept cars
CLASSIC MODERN MODEL AND FUTURERISTIC AMAZING!!
seen this years ago, when they presented this concept car...never thought it would be a working car , instead of just a technology demonstrator
Yo I thought I saw this thing a couple years ago?🤔 They finally did make it for real! Noicee 👌
Waking up the headlights is the most intriguing feature for me. As if it is coming alive.
I have seen the ultimate concept car. Ideally, the skin would become rigid upon impact. That just might be in the works.
karlnespas aka EG23 aka IE23
This would NEVER survive an accident.
BMW used to build aircraft during WWII; planes then had fabric skin. So it is cool to see BMW borrow from their past to enhance the future.
Imagining the cars look would automatically adapt to the drivers face 😂 and even blink the lights synced to the eyes
looks like a Spandex mate a BMW Z4 xD
This is awesome
I remember seeing the car in a magazine back in 2007 it’s nice
I loved that concept when I saw it in the museum more than 10 years ago
This is the most exciting thing to ever happen in Germany
Very cool but imagine rocks hitting the fabric...
It stands in the BMW museum for ages.
Of course, that car gotta be super protective😊
To be honest, the idea with eye-like headlights is pretty nice.
This car is beautiful. :)
bmw knew what they were doing with giving the car that name
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Still the aerodynamics, and the body shape is killer, the split windows give it the appearance of a vintage Chris craft.
Yes, we have seen a tent before!
The terminator should own this car 😂💀
Would be a hit if they sold it with normal body panels...simplicity in autobodies is beautiful
Nice video! Thanks for good content! I like to predict new concepts, so I keep motivated with content like this!
This is an old concept
Epik mission: make a sterling/ steam powered vehicle. Side quest: use liquid nitrogen
What happens if someone cuz the car with a razor what would a repair like that cost 😢 but still it a badas car I love it
