BMW E9 Spirit Commercial

[saltydawg]

I was converting some old family vacation VHS tapes to digital the other day when I found a copy of this old BMW commercial from the mid-90's. It shows the spirit/soul of a crushed E9 being transferred to a new E38 in the factory. Some of you may remember it. It is not for the faint of heart and may prove difficult for some of you to view.

I just uploaded it to youtube:

Message is that chances of owner trading E9 for E38 are same as lightning striking.

No animals were hurt in the production of that movie.

I am hoping it was a model and sfx

 

[rb1971]

Shouldn't it have been an E31 rather than an E38?

 

[vraned]

that e9 obviously had bad karma

It goes to show you that even the gods get irritated when an E9 coupe is left out in the elements.
The gods should not be ignored!!!
