you can download the new 5 series commercial for german television here:

http://www.bmw.com/generic/de/de/pro...a_gallery.html

videos in mov and mpeg format.

here's what they are saying:

e60: "rrrrrrrrrrrrr" *g*
woman: "simulation terminated."
man1 :"so, what do you think?"
man2 :"i think it's a little overdrawn. a car like that doesn't exist yet."

stop the video at 00:12! the e60 looks brilliant from that point of view imho.

so you are interested in all kind of stuff relating to the new E60? wanna see a HUD in action? (it's still a fake (in reality you just can see it from the drivers position), but coming close to the original view and giving you an idea, how it will look like)

So I think you will be interested in a 14mins-Cut from the new BMW-Film "Who killed the idea?" - a great work, as already known from former BMW-Films:

http://whokilledtheidea.bmw.com

in the lower right corner..."Big Internet Cut" (alternative: Main => realization => screen => InternetCut)

please do not post the direct link anywhere! BMW is not allowed, to share the film to North Americans, so you must accept their rules. If you are NA and give wrong information, BMW is not responsible for your actions... ;-)

Relax while watching....

Downloading it now.. but FYI for us American's.. BMW is pretty slick. If you view the site using an American IP address you'll never see the last bubble "InternetCut" that sunshine mentions.

If you're really interested you'll need to proxy via an IP address registered to a European country to download it.

Darn I picked a slow one, download is going at 5.5 KB/s. It'll take forever at this rate!! Ahhh!!

Will view it this afternoon I guess!

Yep, they're easy to find. The clip was okay.. maybe not really. The plot was fairly dumb. Couldn't see too much of the car at all, very few scenes with it and almost all were at night.

In previous bmw films there were usually long chase scenes showing off the car in all angles during the day. I guess this clip just being a preview they didn't want to give it all away.

Can't wait to get the final DVD from roundel.

Holtor, would it be possible for you to host the video for us folks to download? Or maybe we can work something out. Send me a PM and we'll talk.

This would be for those of us that are not as computer savvy.
