COMMENTS

New F30 3 series commercial from down under which invokes the history and heritage of the BMW 3 series sedan.

And a similar one without the historic references.

cool!

I like it, but I admit my bias towards the subject matter at hand.

positiveions · 02-29-2012, 11:33 AM

awesome commercials.

Rich@GTBPerformance · 02-29-2012, 11:41 AM

Ahh my homeland doing us proud!

I'd go back and live there... but I can't even afford a 3 series there.

Nice clip. I like the choice of music too

Some of the clips of the older generations and music was taken from this E90 commercial. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=6M2IP7Kk8EI

Thx for sharing! I actually like that old version of the ad more!

mcacciola · 02-29-2012, 03:47 PM

funny… I play that song very often while driving :-)

InTheNightKitchen · 02-29-2012, 05:23 PM

Imola.ZHP · 02-29-2012, 06:32 PM

I think I spotted a silver e46 ZHP in the first one...

Yup! At 0:09

jwong77 · 02-29-2012, 06:41 PM

Saw an F30 at the dealership yesterday. This thing is going to be a total hit. Very nice!

"We don't make sedans...Introducing the the all new bmw 3 series SEDAN"

Doesn't make sense.

Dino355 · 02-29-2012, 07:30 PM

'We'?

Since when did the Aussies make BMWs?

funftouring · 02-29-2012, 08:25 PM

Sounds like Eric Bana did the vocals. He's a big car guy, especially muscle cars.

AZ865 · 02-29-2012, 09:45 PM

Here down under, we love BMW's.

DDS2015 · 02-29-2012, 11:42 PM

I like it, but I think that he's speaking to quickly.

Ha, that is definitely not Eric Bana.

The song on that track is awful! Mid 2000's overplayed rubbish! Come on BMW you can do better than that.

Where in the ad do they say these cars are Australian made? "We" refers to the company BMW which the advert is for.

BMW Australia has actually made some pretty cool advertising in the past, such as this one:
