Looks like they got their pictures all messed up.

I'll see if I can Tivo this. Looks cool.

Hotan Braskey · 06-16-2006, 11:53 AM

That would be great. Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully they can get Danica (sp?) Patrick again to help out

vladinecko · 06-16-2006, 12:06 PM

is someone going to put it on the web? i don't get that channel, which is weird because i get all HBOs and Showtimes and crap. comcast sucks ass.

abc · 06-16-2006, 10:16 PM

i got an email about this for sunday. should be good. there's a m6 on display in nyc at rockefellor center

espo · 06-18-2006, 12:35 AM

Set the DVR to record... Thanks

SiR · 06-18-2006, 05:38 PM

DVRing from across the country, gotta love technology.

ward · 06-18-2006, 07:59 PM

too bad the shows such fluff, just a big infomercial

Still entertaining though

desinole · 06-18-2006, 09:30 PM

Saw it and some bits were nice, like the history of the ///M cars, but it still was an infomercial.

Ooh and the BMW CEO could drive the car on track, damn, another good reason to get a BMW, their people really love cars.

Pedro · 06-18-2006, 09:38 PM

Sweet how the M6 reached 194mph on the Autobahn before having to slow down due to traffic.

nmulax · 06-18-2006, 09:40 PM

Maybe it's just me... but the host (can't remember his name), really bugs me. Otherwise it was entertaining, but his personality irritates me.

foofighter · 06-18-2006, 09:57 PM

Tommy Kendall, not a good tv show host and wasnt that spectacular of a racing driver either

I was a bit disappointed that they were in Germany and didnt thump the M6 around the ubiquetous "ring" overall it was fun to watch.

DVR did not record. I'm pissed. I guess i'll try it again.

KUweatherman · 06-19-2006, 09:48 AM

Got the email from BMW about this last week. Set the DVR to record the one that is on today at 3PM Eastern Time.

Brunotheboxer · 06-19-2006, 02:48 PM

i liked the crazy austrian guy but it was just an infomercial and i didn't make it to the end

Pedro · 06-19-2006, 07:41 PM

I agree that the host sucked; he had many mental pauses and his ad lib blew. If he didnt have any script he just sucked. "Uh...eh...um...lets go to commercial". He's fired in my book.

Greeney · 06-19-2006, 08:01 PM

My brother deleted it off the TIVO while we were watching it? I have it set up to record again.

JO3 · 06-20-2006, 12:13 AM

Here's a link to the trailer for the show on bmwusa's website:

Hans Stuck is a living legend incredibly enthusiastic and loves his job...i would be giddy as a school girl if i had his job too

Macfreak7 · 06-20-2006, 12:29 AM

I sooo wish they'd make HUD standard, or at least a paid option on the 3

Dawg Nuts · 06-20-2006, 12:37 AM

Show was entertaining...watching the M6 go 194mph was the coolest part.
