I'm not on as much anymore but I'm still keeping up with the news. Had to come on and post tonite when I read about the FEP shots of the new 7er in Melbourne!

I feel much abliged to join my my fellow neurosurgeons and get a new 7er as my next car. If it looks as good as I think it will then maybe we're in business...

Need something to make the ride home comfortable and especially if it has seat massagers. Nothing like a massage and a comfortable ride home after a long day. Nothing wrong with that right ?

Do you really think they will close both sides of the bridge?

I think not ... since they don't need sound records (sound is added during editing).

Just check by local authorities when the bridge will be closed.

Trains? On the Bolte Bridge? Don't think so mate, perhaps sydney harbour

Ahh, clever

I presumed they would close both as it wouldn't be desirable to have other cars in the background of a shoot, I would've thought? I'll try to give citylink a call tomorrow, but the bridge is on a tollway and it'd be a good $20 trip worth of tolls and fuel...

Good to see that BMW has acknowledge Australia as a loyal and growing market and as such has decided to encorporate the country into it's global media empire. It is a quite, behind the door acknowledgement that Australia is regarded as a good market for BMW vehicles. Should be very benefitial in increasing the image of the vehicles in the Australian public if they see images of the vehicles with Australian backdrops etc...

I am afraid it is really nothing to do with this and is all about architecture and structural beauty that reflects the designs and inspiration of our products.

We have exclusive permission (My superiors are very persuavise) to close the bridge both here in Melbourne and one lane on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We are shooting at night in Melbourne also .

Ok so again, without a helicopter or a telescopic lens it'll be impossible to shoot it on the Bolte Bridge....
