We’ve all had fantasies about owning our own real-life Transformer. I mean who wouldn’t like to have a Bumblebee sitting inside their garage at night?

Well a Turkish engineering firm, Letrons, has gone and built a transformable BMW that’s not only 100% foldable but also drivable too. Okay so maybe not in the traditional sense – you can only drive it around using a remote control. Still, it’s a pretty impressive feat nonetheless. The team apparently spent eight months building the prototype you see here.

Want one? Well apparently you can order one – just expect to cough-up a fair amount of dough for the privilege.
