BMW brings Art Car Exhibition to life

Since 1975 BMW has had a strong connection with renowned artists from around the world. The famous Art Car series has, to date, seen 17 cars transformed from generic racers into unique, moving canvases.

Late next year, Nissan will begin showing a string of restyled high-volume car lines, including the Altima and Versa.
