It’s been about a year since we have been able to feast our eyes on a design created by Russian designer Krasnov Igor. The last creation we saw was the Marussia Muska supercar. Now, in a display of utter extravagance, Igor has unleashed his imagination on a rendering of a BMW supercar.

Named the BMW->ke178 Sports Coupe, Igor has combined elements of the GINA Light Visionary concept along with classic BMW cues as found in models such as the 328 Roadster. The comparison to the GINA concept->ke3208 is based on the almost seamless outer skin of the BMW Sports Coupe. The skin is a flexible textile cover that stretches across a moveable substructure with functions that are only revealed if and when they are needed. The front of this design seems to be a bulkier version of the front end of the 328->ke290 Roadster equipped with the tall double kidney grille.

A radical design, to say the least, but still enough to generate some interesting discussions on whether or not BMW should get into the supercar business. The look seems to be a little extreme for BMW, but let us know what you think!
