Some pretty crazy stuff has come out of Asia but I must say, what you see above is definitely towards the top of that list. The creation in question is an F1 car fashioned completely out of bread done by Royal Plaza On Scotts in Singapore’s Culinary Executive Chef and a team of 6 chefs, 2 technicians, 5 volunteers and 2 artists.

The finished product reportedly took 33 pounds of yeast, 4.4 pounds of salt, almost 3 gallons of varnish and 14 liters of water. Sure this is cool and all, but I wonder how much calories this would be?

For the many car addicts aching to find out how much the 2009 BMW Z4 is going to cost, well the long wait is over. BMW North America has just released the U.S pricing for the new 2009 BMW Z4. As expected, there is a price increase over the previous Z4 generation, but still significantly lower than the German pricing.

The entry model, BMW Z4 sDrive30i has a base price of $46,575 and the twin-turbo powered sDrive35i jumps over the 50k mark, more specifically, $52, 475. Both prices include the Destination & Handling fee.

The Cold Weather package costs $1,000 for both models, while the Premium Package was set for the Z4 sDrive30i at $3,900 or $2,800 if you’re buying the Sport Package as well. The Premium Package for the high-end sDrive35i model costs $2,500.

The Sport Package has a more complicated pricing scheme. If you’re buying the sDrive30i or sDrive35i without the Premium options, then the Sport Package is priced at $2,300. Include the Premium and then you’re only paying $1,900.

For those of you looking for the ultimate performance on your new roadster, the 19: wheels with performance tires are priced at $1,200 (available only for the sDrive35i). The new 7-Speed double clutch transmission is available as well only for the twin-turbo engine and it will set you back $1,525.
