I thought this was an April Fools? Or am I missing something?

A friend just posted this on Facebook. Not sure what to make of it, but it looks genuine to me.

It was their April Fool thing!

 

[Arran]

Ye, but how have they done it? I'm just shocked at the amount of detail they have put in to do this tbh.

 

[Brown bear]

They built a roadgoing version. It was an april fools, but they put some real effort into it.

 

[Jonesy]

Fair play to BMW they have put a lot of effort into that! I wonder where it will end up?

 

[Foxspeed]

[Arran]

Yeah it is an annual tradition for them - I am impressed they have gone all the way with this one though!

 

[Arran]

Never seen things like this before, what have they done in the past?

They've really gone to town on this, fair play to them. Nice to see some people still have a sense of humour (who'd have thought it'd be Ze Germans ?? )

 

[Willis]

I saw the article but I didn't know they'd actually built it!!! Ze Germans are crazy!!!

IMO That does'nt look real. Look how little detail there is in the boot, Its to dark.

it looks like one of the drop top bmw with no hood on and black fabric stretched over it to make it look like a pickup

It's genuine, and not a drop top. Iirc they don't have removable targa top

There are loads of pics about with the load area visible too.
