AUTOS | CARS | FEATURED
what you see here is the very first collaboration between BMW and Pininfarina, dubbed the BMW Pininfarina Gran Lusso Coupe, unveiled at the prestigious Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este 2013. as far as technical specs are concerned, there are none, except for the fact that under that longish bonnet, and behind that signature Beemer twin-kidney grille sits a V12 engine and it is rolling on exclusively designed 21-inch wheels. at first glance, we know it is a BMW, but yet it is decidedly un-BMW like as one could easily sense that someone other than the Munich folks have a hand or two with this luxury two-door coupe. the cabin of this four-seater luxury coupe has a driver focus cockpit where all driving-related functions and controls are subtly tilted towards the driver (like the good'ol sports cars of the nineties), while the rest of the interior receives handcrafted finest leather and 48,000-year-old kauri wood hailed from New Zealand.

well, what do you know? the French synth-pop duo is back with a new album called Random Access Memories and its album cover art seems to serve as a reminder of the duo's totally rad helmets (you know, the Lost In Space era kind of sci-fi-ish head gear?). they are practically icons of the French duo and we
