Chinese sculptor Dai Geng’s concrete BMW Z4 model is an awesome replica of the 155 mhp BMW that was unveiled in January 2010. Since then, the model car has been on display in Shenzheng City. Now, the designer of this replica has decided to sell this amazing piece for the whopping price of $125,000.
It took almost a year for Dai Geng to build the car, and only bricks and cement were used to create it. Dai Geng hopes that his BMW Z4 model would appeal one of China’s rich businessmen.
