bmwusa.com has updated the "thenew5" page. It is at http://www.bmwusa.com/thenew5. It is the same Flash preview that's been on www.bmw.com and www.bmw.de for a while, except with less information . The only thing new is that you can now sign up for a newsletter for the new 5. Just click the link above, let the Flash preview load, on the lower left hand corner you can click to sign up.

Litster;

Is it my imagination, or does the music in that video sound incredibly similiar to the music being played in the background on the new Jaguar S-Type R commercial (the supercharged S-Type)?

Its almost like its the same band, just with a slightly different melody....

If you haven't seen it, I think they play it on CNBC most often.

I haven't seen that Jaguar commercial yet. I have my TV tuned to CNBC now, trying to catch it.

Ya Know I get updates from Jaguar on their S-Tpye R and I have the movie you guys are talking about. Yes the two sound just alike with slight differences. I would post a link but I can't seem to extract a link to follow. The movie is in Java and I can't download it or make a refrence to it. If anyone wants it I can forward my email to you.

reckamech;
O.K., so I'm not going crazy then. You know when you're a musician, you tend to have sounds stick in your head more so than other people do (for some reason). I would be fixing breakfast in the morning & hear JUST THE MUSIC for the Jaguar commercial (as that is the way it starts, without any dialogue) coming from my living room.

I think at least twice, on two separate occasions, I ran over to the T.V. to see if it was a commercial for the new 5. But thanks for restoring my sanity, however it still seems too coincidental. I wonder if it was done on purpose?
