ghey.

Hahahhaa so mean. I'll rent that and watch it. I never watched Fast and Fusious 2 cuz Fast and Furious 1 bored the hell out of me. HORRIBLE!!!!!! Stupid rice rockets but I'm curious to see how this one is tho.


But If i were to watch a car movie at the theaters... I'll rather watch Disney and Pixars "Cars"

the program was nothing too interesting.
just driving the M cars faster than in north america.

M6 going 194 mph on autobahn, M roadster going up twisties in austrian mountain.
M5 on track in N carolina . M coupe in Seattle driving around. lame comments like 'it is so stiff'.

people who didnt get to see it dont really miss much.

however i did learned 2 things:
the HUD is more effective used in the day, at night it gets distracted to your driving.

the cup holder in the 6 series is a work of art developed by teams of engineers, it still does not hold a drink still when throwing the the car around, and should not be used.
it looks really nice and is stored in the glove box, perhaps i should steal one some time to display at home.

I liked the part with Hans Stuck. I like that guy so it was entertaining for me. As for the M Coupe! ARGH I love that car but they picked the worse guy to test it I dont like that guy... what was he from Motor Trend? Sooo borring and not fun to watch. Reguardless of the city... but chosing a major city... SEATTLE there was nothing they can show what the M Coupe is capable of. wasted... I wish it was the M Coupe and M Roadster was swapped.
