Sad I can see. A bit. It's a car I wouldn't mind owning, but it doesn't even have a sunroof.
Angry? It's his car to do as he pleases. And as for the amount of damage - buddy with the axe could have done a much better number on the roof, hood and trunk lid, couldn't he?

And if anyone else plans on destroying a car, try and do it while it's moving. Makes for a much better video.

Angry because that machine - again, the showcase piece of BMW engineering, was senselessly destroyed to make a point that will fall on deaf-ears. BMW won't fret too much over the loss of a 5 y/o discontinued model. Few outside of that gentleman's circle with the means to purchase will use the video as a decision-making tool. Angry because most here have felt the sting of faulty engineering, yet, most would simply sell the car instead of going on a raging spectacle of destruction for a YouTube hit. Angry because if you are gonna do something, don't half-ass do it. That ax could have done MUCH more damage.

This guy is a moron. Destroying one's own car is a horrible way to dissuade people from purchasing it, or incentivising BMW to fix its QC issues.
I would imagine brightly colored sticker magnets and park it in front of the dealer he bought it from would do the trick. I've seen this done with Saabs back in the day.
