BMW M8 Competition Convertible. Nothing too crazy but still a pretty cool car imo.

I saw this a couple weekends ago, but just remembered about it. This looks like a custom hot rod, but has kept its original patina. It is very cool looking.

The “aging” of this is very deliberate. If you look closely, what looks like a piece missing from the grill is deliberate to make it look like a mouth or beak.

This car definitely has a face.

There’s a few that pop up at the Gilmore car museum British car show from time to time.
 
A sidenote: Speaking of Morris Minor, I had the opportunity to drive and help a friend sell this beauty last spring. It is a pretty early split-window car, in an amazing condition. Think it was a 1952.
The new owner drove the car home, about 400 km away, without any issues. These cars are super charming!

And also. A picture of the original owner (at 95 years old) with the car, taken by the second owner when he bought it back in 1981:

Wow, it's very rare I see a BMW ride in the U.S.A.

Cool! Where was that?

Thanks, BMW M models are actually relatively common in Germany, I see them in my city on a regular basis. Though tbf an M8 is definitely the rarest of them, most of the time it‘s an M3/M4 or M5.
