Why doesn't BMW just make good looking concept cars?

>>16057598
They're "good looking" to progressive thinkers.

>>16056935
well they would work, and looks fine, except when you have to go turn the wheel hand over hand a noncircular shape is not optimal. if they made a really tight rack, that you only had to turn the wheel 90 degrees either way, then something like that is more feasible.

>>16057680
>90
120 lowest. 90 would get people killed.

>>16057698
exactly. 120 would be too much to turn the wheel without having to move your hand positions, so that's why non circular wheels won't work for steering wheels.

>>16057746
You can one hand a 120deg pretty easily but past that you're pushing it.

>>16057680

No. No, just stop.

Everything else than circular steering wheels is fucking idiotic in a normal street car. It just isn't fucking practical at all.

Why isn't this more popular in supercars?

They did it in the F1 and everybody thought it was cool, but then it was never done again.

>>16059040

I would imagine it's because most people want to be able to show off their supercars to a passenger at some point.

Some of them are, like the Buick Regal is a rebadged Opel Insignia, but they do have some original models like the Buick LaCrosse

Its the red paint underneath the brown shell. The brown shell can flex like that because it's made up of smaller brown portions connected by a stretchable red material.

You can turn 180 degrees without moving your hands. Watch an F1 driver spin out.

>>16068061
I can, you can, most of us all can, but normies don't want to.

it would be pretty cool (but dangerous) if we could replace our racks with ones that are only one turn lock to lock.
