okay so the thing i want to know about it is that are the "prototypes" of different cars on the net really the prototypes or not because just today i was surfing the web and i came across this:
http://www.leftlanenews.com/spied-bmw-x6-prototype.html
...which to me seems that the picture has been edited...i may be wrong but then i got curious and searched for another prototype and the results were more or less the same..So i was wandering if someone could tell me what is this...:S:S...

this is probably a test mule of BMW (a new model), the are heavily disguised to protect the real shape frm spy photographers.sometimes when they are at the end of the testing stage they are not so heavily disguised and a lot of the magazine try to make a render of what it might look like. right now, if you see the same pics at different sites, then its the early stage of testing
