BMW fanatic wants to take his car beyond the grave with him

The dead are becoming more and more famous here on Topspeed, and it’s not because of reasons you might think. After featuring a young Puerto Rican and the rather unusual way he was displayed at his wake, we now have another dead car-loving fanatic who still wants to remind people just how much he loves cars even after he has passed on.

Steve Marsh, who was affectionately called BMW Steve by those close to him, passed on last year at the age of 51. We don’t know if he specifically wanted this type of tombstone on his grave, but his family, after being granted permission by the local authorities, went out and imported a one-piece granite scale model headstone of a BMW M3 convertible, BMW Steve’s favorite car in the world. And just to make sure that the granite M3 has BMW Steve’s imprint on it, his family personally designed the car, including the customized silver-painted lights, a dashboard, BMW logos on the wheels, and even a personalized license plate bearing the name ’Steve 1’.

And the cost of the car? That would be £50,000, which, if you didn’t know, is about the same price as a real BMW M3.

I saw this a little while ago. It creeps me right the f*ck out.

:facepalm:

I wonder if anyone has, could, or would sit in it.

This is the modern version of the chinese emperor that had statues of his army made so he could be buried with them guarding him.

some scum bags addicted to heroin or meth are going to steal it.

I would of gone with the coupe.

Absolutely getting stolen.

the only thing that's inacurate about that BMW is that it didn't just change lanes 7 times and tailgate you for ten minutes.
