It seems like everyone wants a BMW these days but this one guy went further than anything else we’ve seen before. He decided to make a BMW that wasn’t even invented yet out of a Mazda.
We’ll give him credit for choosing one of the best handling Mazdas ever made, a MX-5 Miata but even so, his end result failed miserably at what it was supposed to do.

What exactly was that? You might ask.... Well, a BMW Z9 Concept, a car to follow in the footsteps of the legendary Z8 Roadster. The only problem is that it looks absolutely awful.

It’s true, he did try to make it look like a true Bimmer, implementing the famous kidney grilles at the front and making the headlights look like they came off an E63 6 Series but in the end, the whole thing ended up looking like Frankenstein’s monster.

And imagine that he also wanted to install a 2003 Mitsubishi Evolution engine, AWD system and brakes but, fortunately, he came to his senses and dropped the whole thing. His car is up for sale on eBay, in case you’re interested.
