BMW unscripted is a series about people, talking about their life, passion and joy with the brand BMW.

I have kind of exceeded the speed limit a little bit. Am I supposed to say that in this recorded part?

I could connect with this car because it has a special spirit. It has a soul. And when I first drove it, I thought “woah!” This feels like it’s carved out of one piece.

This is going to be me in 30 years, cherishing my 2001 E39 M5.

At a minimum, skip to 1:30 in where you’ll hear “Third gear.” and then listen to the glorious exhaust note of the inline 6.

UPDATE:
Bill Marceau, the creative director from GSD&M of the BMW unscripted series ( contacted me and offered a better quality version with no subtitles (the original vision I suspect). I’ve made it available here.

For reference, the version posted by BMW on YouTube is available here.
