Visual editor Michael Bartolomeo?s Cross Country Timelapse is a near continuous recording of his drive from San Francisco to Washington, D.C.; a picture is taken every 10 seconds.

Yeah, judging by the rear view mirror shape and the dash I'm thinking E46 M3.

I'm doing a cross-country trip from the south of germany right to the very north (and crossing into denmark) at the weekend. It'll be about 500 miles of continuous (mostly unrestricted) autobahn (the A7). I was thinking of having another go at doing one of these. I'd be taking one shot every 5 seconds rather than 10 though, I think it's too long between shots.

That was great. I made it for three minutes prior to feeling like I was going to have seizure. I felt like an eight-year-old Japanese kid watching Pokemon.
