e90 325i.

We watched it too.

He was a bank robber and that was his "get away" car.

The cops dropped off because it was "too dangerous".

We watched it for 20 minutes on the big screen at our dealership.

I was thinking that, too. What did she think all of the other cars were moving over for? If your reaction time is that slow you shouldn't be driving. I did feel bad that she had a baby in the back, though, which would be more important to me than trying to punch a guy through a windshield, but whatever, haha.

And you are telling customers, "look what you can do with our cars!"

Yeah, really. Actually, my manager only watched 5 minutes and left saying that this was bad publicity for BMW.

It was rather intereting...let me tell you.

Most of the sales guys were all over near the big screen trying to guess the BMW.

We concluded that the e90 M3 hasn't reached the states yet...so it had to be an e90 325i because it didn't have that much of a lead.

But, I thought it slightly looked like an e39 525i from a distance, but after a close up shot it was clearly an e90.

I find it funny that the police departments supposed best weapon for stopping cars "the spike strip" gets totally owned by the run-flats

**c1apton** · 01-19-2006, 11:33 PM

No offense Linds, but it always seems a woman ruins a guys fun especially when it comes to cars. Actually that guy could'nt be too brilliant - 1st robbing a bank, 2nd trying to out run cops in Texas. Texas is 1101 miles from East to West - so they might have had just a couple of opportunities to stop him. Hope he had his Mobil "quick pass" for gas

**Hoppy** · 01-19-2006, 11:45 PM

see personaly.once the helicopter showed up. id slow down to like. 60 where MPG is better. and seen if i can atleast get some press coverage out of it

**Linds** · 01-19-2006, 11:46 PM

Lol, none taken, a lot of women are really bad drivers (I am, of course, the exception

). In fact, if I think back on it, most of the people I see do stupid things are either women or eighty year olds who can't see three feet in front of them.

Edit: in reference to c1apton's post

**Rooz** · 01-19-2006, 11:50 PM

We should riot outside of the prison the guy gets sent to, lol

Seeing that it happened in Texas, he won't get "time" he'll get deported or executed.
