To be honest neither can I. That said, when was the last time BMW world-premiered a car in Detroit? I honestly don't remember. Anyone? Edit: I searched and came up with the 1M back in 2011. Anyone sit in that car? Any pics online of people in the car? If the answers to those are "yes" then I'd say that's a good sign. I couldn't find any myself, but I didn't search that hard either.
What I do know is that pre-production cars, no matter the manufacturer or the auto show, are almost always kept under tight wraps. If it's not the final product; you really don't want potential customers pouring over every inch and scrutinizing.
By the way "roped off" is just a colloquial term, it's a figure of speech for a car that isn't accessible to the public.
