This video may be NSFW, depending on how liberal your workplace is, heheh. I can’t imagine which country this ad is for though - it advertises the Nissan Pathfinder’s front independant suspension.

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.

Pimped out white Honda Accord

I’m not sure where this car is from, but I’m just taking a wild guess that it’s from somewhere in the Middle East, perhaps Dubai. They’ve been known for this kind of outrageious pimped out rides. Check out what they did to a pre-facelift Honda Accord/Honda Inspire after the jump.

Mat Rempit Stunt

[UPDATED] The first video is a Bonnie and Clyde style of Mat Rempit stunt, with a motorcyclist dude and someone presumably his girlfriend doing stunts together. Looks pretty dangerous, but this seriously looks like it needs ALOT of practice.

The second video is a solo flight. Watch how he overtakes the car towards the end of the video while still performing his little stunt. I won’t spoil it for you by telling you what he does. Videos are after the jump.

New 2007 BMW X5 (E70)

x5teaser_1_small.jpg

This is BMW’s new X5, the second in it’s generation since it’s release back in 1999. Like it’s predecessor, BMW calls the new E70 a Sports Activity Vehicle or SAV rather than an SUV, as BMW says it’s dynamics are a step above it’s rivals’ utilitarian construction. So what’s new with BMW’s flagship 4WD? More details after the jump.

[UPDATE: Test Drive Report of 2007 BMW X5 4.8i and 3.0d in Athens.]

[UPDATE: The new second generation E70 BMW X5 has been launched in Malaysia. Click here for prices and other details.]

Nissan’s Sports Concept

The Ghost in the Shell series is very popular, enjoying sales of 1.5 million DVDs so far, so this is a pretty good deal for Nissan. I wish they inculded the GTR-PROTO into the anime though, too bad! :( More details on the Nissan Sports Concept here, and the video is available after the jump!

Supercharged E46 BMW M3

small_m3_grey.jpgNothing much other than optical and aural masturbation, here’s a video of an E46 BMW M3 with a bolt on supercharger. In stock form, the BMW M3 is powered by a 3.2 liter normally aspirated inline-6 engine with the code S54B32. The S54B32 is a high performance derivative of the M54 straight-six engine with 6 individual throttle bodies, making 342 horsepower at 7,900rpm and 355Nm of torque at 4,900rpm. Just after peak horsepower, the engine reaches it’s redline at 8,000rpm. While the new E90 BMW M3 will feature a V8 based on the current M5’s V10, the E46 M3’s straight six is still used in the current BMW Z4 M Roadster and Z4 M Coupe.
