Thumbs up Finally found the link to the BEST 944 video to date...

I have mentioned this video in a number of threads and no one ever seems to post it or remember it. I have had it saved on my computer for probably 4-5 years but could never find the link to it online. Well I finally stumbled across it just now in a search. I would love to see some more videos like this done. In my opinion it's the best 951 video I have seen put together yet. Enjoy....

I'll admit that it is a well edited video, but the music is somewhat annoying and nothing really happens. It looks like some car test drive you'd see on a tv show.

It was ok I guess... Give my friend footage of doing stuff with the car and in a hour he'll give you pure gold as far as editing goes.

To those of you who are saying it was "okay" the point here is that there are very few video's of this sort with 944's. If you go over to the BMW forums this kind of thing is posted every day. If it's just "okay" then let it inspire you to go out and make new and better 944 videos. We need more photo shoots and video's of 944's.

The thing is that they have to make videos like that of their cars to make them think their cars are cool. We already know our cars are cool, therefore we don't bother making the videos.

That was the best 944/951 video I've seen. I'm not saying it's spectacular or perfect, but like you said there isn't a whole lot out there. We need more videos like this, possibly with better cameras. And definitely with better music.

If my 944 was nice, and either of my 968s was running, I'd do it, maybe soon.

Id rather just watch a badass 944 or 951 go around a track. Those type of "photoshoot" videos are boring.

I have a couple videos to share.

This first one was made for our local BMW club's poker run in May 08. The grey 635csi was my daily driver until this past week.

Then in August 08 we had a 944 meet with a film crew documenting. Here is the result!
