I just watched it and I definitely thought that they could have included more from the performance aspect of BMW not chimes and Rolls Royce Motor Cars. I would have loved to hear about the engine design team and the labs and plants were engines are assembled as well as a tour of the M plant in Regensburg.
+1. I thought it was kind of a fluff piece on BMW - who wants to know about their chimes? What about the development of engines, suspension, bodyshell torsional rigidity, etc.? Wait a minute - most of our fellow Americans don't have a clue about that stuff, so send in a guy who doesn't know sh*t about cars to do a show for like-minded individuals. It was a wasted opportunity to show what makes them really stand out vs. their competition: Performance.
