I bet you are using Internet Explorer and it says: "this video is no longer available" right. Use firefox or chrome - the video is still there.

I got that video at the BMW factory in Dingolfing, in November 2003 when we test drove the E60 530dA in Germany for two days.

I've lost count on how many times I've seen it

From the trip in November 2003:

Everyone here should copy this . It's a beautifully shot spot that really catures the basic elegance and timeless beauty of the E60...........whatever model you drive , It will be interesting to see how well the E60 ages when the F10 comes out............the E39 looks ancient to me now .................................Thanks for sharing Ric !!

Sometimes a re-post does it

Link still working just fine, Firefox works better that MS (More S**t).

yeah, it's an elegant spot no doubt.

Many say that E60 was a revolution from the E39, years ahead of it's time when it came out. I say true.
F10 looks like an evolution rather than a design revolution to me.

On another note, would be nice to found out the origin of the music track...
