I work in advertising.

I'm not sure what agency made this for bmw, but this is about licensable footage because they probably didn't have the car available to shoot.

That is in fact a Tesla, and I've seen that same piece of footage in countless other ads, sourced from
filmsupply.com.

It's pretty laughable and lazy that whoever responsible for this would take a completely different car and pop it in a teaser video for a new BMW. But equally as lazy that someone from bmw approved it.

I REMEMBER THAT! It really made me choke on my seat.
M2: makes V10 noises
Me: Did BMW revive the S85?
*hears R8/Huracan V10*
Me: BOY I AM REALLY ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT RIGHT NOW!

I saw this when it popped up on YT this morning. Left me baffled and unsurprised. I hope they're trolling with this junk.

Really BMW? Not even using the car now? Is that how much your enthusiasts mean to you, it's like a joke at this point to see how far you can push and what you can get away with. It's embarrassing and insulting.

It's like they have been taken over by a rival company or something.

Anyway, let's hope the actual car is good and was created by the true engineers not these retards I wouldn't trust with a potato gun.
