New Australian 3 Series F30 Ad: 40 Years Ago We Stopped Making Sedans

New F30 3 series commercial from down under which invokes the history and heritage of the BMW 3 series sedan.





And a similar one without the historic references.

I like it, but I admit my bias towards the subject matter at hand.

Ahh my homeland doing us proud!

I'd go back and live there... but I can't even afford a 3 series there.

Saw an F30 at the dealership yesterday. This thing is going to be a total hit. Very nice!

Since when did the Aussies make BMWs?

Sounds like Eric Bana did the vocals. He's a big car guy, especially muscle cars.

Ha, that is definitely not Eric Bana.

The song on that track is awful! Mid 2000's overplayed rubbish! Come on BMW you can do better than that.

Where in the ad do they say these cars are Australian made? "We" refers to the company BMW which the advert is for.

BMW Australia has actually made some pretty cool advertising in the past, such as this one:
