An artist is asking £80,000 for a BMW car that handles like a brick - because it's made out of hundreds of them.
Dai Geng spent more than a year cementing the brick blocks together which he then carved into a model of a sporty 155mph BMW Z4.
Dai even managed to make brick hinges so the doors actually open and close.
The car has been on display at Shenzheng, in Guangdong province, in southeastern China, for the past year and now has been put up for sale.
Dai said: "Only the windows are not made of bricks. Everything else including the tyres, the steering wheel, the exhaust pipe and trimmings are made of brick.
"I have had it on display for the year after it was unveiled last January - and now I want to sell it."
He said the car would probably be sold for use as a garden ornament to one of the newly rich Chinese for whom BMW is regarded as extremely desirable because of the quality and performance.
