I will have to go with Roy Lichtenstein, his 1977 BMW 320i, is just awesome.

Oh my god these cars are just jaw droppingly beautiful.. Any idea how much artwork like this cost to have done?

Also, my fav is definitely 1977 artist: Roy Lichtenstein car: BMW 320i, something about it really catches my eye.

Nominated Post

If Jackson Pollock is still alive, he would have made the most beautiful BMW art car with a 3.0CSL !!

My favourite is the 3.0CSL by Alexander Calder.
