It's a homage to the 250 GTO that won the Tour de France in '64.

There used to be a Daytona GTB/4 racer that had the livery. It really stood out on that car. Wish I could find a picture of it.

Here is something I have been working on for the past week. It was quite a daunting and frustrating task at times with trying to find different ways of "serving" it, just because of the sheer number of photos, but I finally found some feasible and operative solution.

I actually scoured this entire thread and downloaded every photo that was posted, and got them uploaded to Google Plus in private albums. It's not exactly easy to sift through them, since there are close to 3000 photos, but at least you can kind of weed through and look back at all the great stuff that has been posted.

Google Plus only allows 1000 photos per album so there are 3:

https://plus.google.com/photos/10794...CMqZpYzMorboaQ
https://plus.google.com/photos/10794...OrZo-6G2ZuQoAE
https://plus.google.com/photos/10794...CLH-_K_Wrdm6HQ

I have made a note of where I left off and plan to keep it updated at some uncertain frequency.

Also you can download any photo at full-size. Any photo that was larger than 2048px on the long end gets resized to that. But the nice thing is, all 1920px photos remain intact.

Finally, there's not really any kind of order, again because of the sheer volume of photos. I just was happy to finally actually get them uploaded and available.

Love the wheels on the BMW. The headlight and grill though still hasn't grown on me.

I love the overall look but I'm having trouble with the front bumper. The rest of the car is like curvy and sexy while the front bumper is squarish and abrupt.

I would definitely not kick it out of bed, though.

Actually, I think the black grill really improves this part of the new design. With the chrome grill, the headlights blend in to the side of the grill too much; this way looks better, IMO.
