I think everyone remembers the films BMW put out with Clive Owen as the main man. I love these short films. BMW sure had a sense of marketing when they did this. Brilliant. And there are a total of 8 (not 10 iirc) of them! The M5 stars in this one.

Love this film, it never gets old. Fun fact- I remember the "making of Star" and it said the car did not want to drift, it just stuck around those turns. So they had to modify the suspension and traction settings so the car would break loose.

Don't quote me on it. I saw that behind the scenes over 10yrs ago but I'm fairly certain I'm right.

Probably her best acting...

I love it when stars laugh at themselves!

"as far as you know" is good enough for me. It certainly sounds plausible though.

So did I! That DVD made sure I got an A in film class because my professor wanted to show one of the films, but he only could find a scratchy YouTube version.

Thanks BMW!

Yeah, I plan to retell this as fact regardless. Very interesting.

Easily the best of the bunch, I still watch it from time to time. And hell I just remembered it's my avatar (They're so freakin small now it's hard to remember).

Lol, one would almost suspect you created that account name and avatar right after seeing this. Haha, you surely are a fan.
