German automaker BMW gets a USA makeover with the release of the BMW bobsled.
Constructed for the use of Team USA during the Winter Olympics, the BMW bobsled is a carbon fiber beauty with the intent to take gold in Sochi, Russia during the 2014 Winter Olympic Games. Athletes Steve Langton and Elana Meyers will have the honor of riding this beauty fast and furiously to the finish line representing USA while showcasing Germany's fine craftsmanship. The BMW bobsled took two years of design expertise to make, and will be replacing the traditional team bobsled that's been used for the last 20 years.
America has not won a gold in this sport since the 30s, but with a bobsled, this sleek and swanky design may change things this year.
