318is featured in Heat (the film)
« on: May 21, 2010, 01:18:15 AM »
anyone remember this gem?


couldn't stand the movie but i got a kick out of that scene, so i looked it up

i guess they didn't get the tint done at the dealer considering the car was only ~4 years old at the time and its already purple
and looks like someone stole their center caps and they replaced them

How can you not stand that movie? Great movie of the 90's, if not one of the best.

Anyway, the 318is is only in that shot for a few seconds. Kinda stinks. But that was definitely an awesome scene.

haha that commercial literally had that bimmer in it for 1 second. My guess is that the car belonged to the camera crew or some mid-ranking official, not the starving starving Africans :0
