    just a BRZ for now

    So I made a website you guys might like

    www.FacesOfBMW.com

    Hey, I'm an art director for a living and made this website as a portfolio piece. I wanted to showcase the evolution of BMW's kidney grill and headlights throughout its history in a cool and interesting way. See if you can name the car before the name appears.

    What do you think? Any car in particular that I'm missing that you'd like to see?

    My goal is to eventually have every single BMW ever created on there.

    Dis. I like dis.

    Just curious, why did some models include the fogs, and others not? Just a style choice?

    This would make a great screen saver.

    Neat site, I like it. I think you might want to put more space in the height of the pages. The name was popping up well before the previous image was completely.
    Current fleet:
    1999 BMW e36 M3
    1999 BMW e36 328is with rotary valve engine head
    1999 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight
    1990 Jeep Comanche Eliminator
    1962 Austin Healey Sprite

    Thanks guys,

    Some cars I thought worked really well with the fog lights.
    E39 is coming soon. I have the design ready to go.

    Were you guys able to name most of the cars before the name scrolled up?

    I was able to get most of them E28 and after... actually quite enjoyed guessing at them. Would be a fun little flash-based quiz type thing imo...

    Cool, I think the E36 should have the inside headlight round circles visible, awaiting the E39 to be posted as well.

    See that for example the E36 is showing the pre-97 kidneys and for E39 you are using the facelift front.

    Looks cool!

    I think the e36 shoukd have the circles for the headlight with a box around them, otherwise it makes it look like the actual lights for our cars were squares (like an old ford)

    Would make for a nice animated gif.
    Not so much a signature as a cry for help.

    Hold on, saw this in a cartoon once...think I can pull it off.
