Loved the first series with Clive Owen. I always thought he would have made a good James Bond.

You mean e39?

I'd be interested in knowing how you know it's not an M5.

Talking

Lol! I love the idea of a pop star being an entitled " C U iN Texas" to an 'ordinary' person and then being whipped around the back seat of a fast car like a rag doll for revenge.

PS, after that Dukes jump, the front end of that beautiful e39 must have folded up like an accordion.

He's right. They put an M5 kit on a regular 5 series. I believe they couldn't get an M5 for the shoot with them being in high demand at the time.

it would be quite a feat to top "The Hire", but after reading that "The Transporter" was inspired by it, you know, Jason Statham would be great as the new driver for this campaign. I'm looking forward to seeing what BMW comes up with.

Wasn't he referring to Ronin?

Clive Owen should have been the next Bond. Danial Craig is ok but come on this Clive rocked in the BMW films. I still have an originAl
Copy of the DVD.

Maybe they'll have some action packed one of some soccer mom driving her kids around in the 2 Active Tourer.

If it comes to fruition, I'D LOVE IT

Loved Ronin too, might watch that later today. Natascha McElhone is gorgeous, I love her high "Natural" cheek bones. I'd nibble on them like a teething baby

Clive Owen better be back!

Ah, Ronin.........

Great movie, although ironically it promoted Audi even more than BMW with an actual 1st gen S8 being used (guess it was not in demand at the time as much as the E34 M5.....lol).
