Key points of ITS:
1. Both BFR & BFS should be 100% reusable.
2. Raptor is a MethaLox Engine
3. Capable of Landing 100 Ton(or 100 people) on the Surface of Mars
4. BFS should be able to produce it's Fuel on Mars via ISRU to get back to earth.
Here's some Fan Made rendering(based on rumors) of what ITS might look like.

Elon Musk is a smart guy but I think he is wasting time and money on this project while Tesla is suffering. He should focus on Tesla and try to solve the technical and political issues that are detrimental to the large scale production and marketing of this car.
