Nature meets Art. Last week we put the BMW Art Car designed by Jeff Koons on top of Pulpit Rock in Norway – 604 metres above the ground. A real highlight, isn’t it? // Photo by Dag Myrestrand

Haha that's awesome, thanks for sharing!

Nice! Glad to see BMW not needing to spare any expense in a very rational marketing event; "We build race cars........ to put on top of mountains."

I love that Art Car though

That's just crazy! Hey Philip, I think you need to paint your car just like that.

Saw this picture on BMW facebook today. Was wondering how it got up there.

Very cool.

That would be so awesome to hike up and just see this car sitting there unexpected.

mshab356 · 08-30-2012, 02:03 PM

Imagine if the cable broke and that M3 dropped 600 meters...

tightie · 08-30-2012, 02:06 PM

zumjosh · 08-30-2012, 02:54 PM

Ok, so if Ken Block was ballsy enough to drift his car on a barge with no barriers on the San Francisco Bay, who's ballsy enough to drift the GT2 M3 on Pulpit Rock?
