Morphing BMW 3-Series advertisement

5gen3series.jpg

This is a very nice commercial from BMW for the BMW 3-Series showing the first BMW sports sedan – the BMW 2002 in 1968 as well as all 5 generations of the 3-series from the E21 back in 1975, to the BMW E30 in 1984, to the BMW E36 in 1992, then further on to the modern E46 launched in 1999 and subsequently the latest E90 BMW 3-series launched this year. Video can be viewed after the jump, enjoy!

    I bet this was released in US, coz this Ad wasn't supposed to use this song, and Americans get bored with un-happening songs….. :)

    What song is this ar?

    Also, after my bad experience with E46… I will never drive a BMW ever again! Imagine having a new E46 broke down in the middle of the street due to a faulty coolant sensor! Shit brand!

    awesome clip!

    a creative clip that shows that the design cues of the 3 series is still there. over the years it had never change its heritage. unlike audi.. always coming out of new stuff to impress buyers.. well have not impress me YET!

    BMW.. the one and only ultimate driving machine!

    funny they only showed a brief glimpse of the E30 generation.

    I actually liked that generation of 3-series the most.
