X12

I was in Dubai a few weeks back and saw a BMW X12 at the mall of dubai. I had never seen it before so couldnt help snapping a picture.

I wonder if BMW actually makes it or someone took x5 and completely changed the body?

I hear you, but that Audi is actually good looking... I think Chrome would be easier to clean though, Silver tarnishes too easily

Can't believe I'm saying this, but that looks like an uglier version of the 5 series GT, didn't know they existed.

Just for the record. This was not conceived or built by BMW.

I think here is perhaps final proof that people who have lots and lots of money are more than likely to be potentially stupid to even think of a monstrosity like this. Possibly the only thing that can salvage it would be an exocet missile.

It reminds me of a Simpsons episode where Homer has a long last brother in charge of a car company and asks Homer to contribute a specification for his dream car and it looks just as bad as this. Which then bankrupts Homer's brother and his auto company.

You're probably right... but this thing especially the backend/tail lights looked very legit in person.

The top backend is the only part that looks like it could be legit to me. Everything else screams custom chopped. I personally don't like it but to each their own.
