I never would have expected to see a photo of a BMW skidding across the tip of a giant, penis-shaped boat when checking bimmerpost.com today...

Well.........you need to raise your expectations.

I wish we would use that in TV promo spots in the US

smedin · 07-07-2014, 03:09 PM

That's some seriously good (digital) work.

zenderm3 · 07-07-2014, 03:24 PM

Nice Video - now to order my car :P - I hate that we pay so much in Australia!

PhantomCypher · 07-07-2014, 03:29 PM

Well done on the vid! I can suspend my disbelief for that brief minute and a half.

Downeaster1 · 07-07-2014, 04:21 PM

I don't think the Air Boss would be too keen on that idea...

Where is the "professional driver, closed course" warning? I can just see the lawsuits flying when guys start racing their M4's on parked US aircraft carriers just to prove how cool they are and end up skidding over the edge.

Yes, BMW bought an aircraft carrier, and converted it to a giant bespoke race track so they could get away from spy photographers. That's why you can't buy an M4 under MSRP yet. Aircraft carriers aren't cheap. Also, the unicorn urine they use in the new metallic paints is super-rare, so there's that.

Yeah it was develop an M10 or buy the carrier... Poor choice, and the carrier is a bit heavy but at least it's rear drive.

Now do it again in 40 footers.

I'd move IF I were you.

I've learned two things from this thread:

1. M fans are really gullible if they think that's a real aircraft carrier or even a real car in some instances.
2. MT guys are desperate for any ray of hope that their tranny of choice isn't utterly outclassed. It's like the E92 vs F80 debate in microcosm, except you can't even throw a BBK or blower on MT to try and compensate.

GuyOh · 07-07-2014, 06:42 PM

damnnn!!!!!! that was sick!!!

tooch · 07-07-2014, 07:00 PM

Thats some great advertising!!! What a beast

BMW Fantasy Division: CGI aircraft carriers, cars drifting at 2x sped up film...what's next? 3,300 lbs and V8 engine sound (from the inside)

Seriously, cool video in that its definitely attracts your attention and gets the heart pumping!

CanAutM3 · 07-07-2014, 07:19 PM

Another cool BMW Canada production

CFENSTY · 07-07-2014, 07:22 PM

You think the 6mt will have that mechanical sounding clunk right out of the box? I doubt it. Reminds me of the way my Z4M shifted with UUC SSK + DSSR or my gated Ferrari 308. So sweet.

Manbnda · 07-07-2014, 07:35 PM

Wow it sounds like a freaking turbine
