M3s in a 21st Century Insurance Commercial
Not sure if anyone has seen this, but thought it was pretty cool... 2 m3s in the back of this 21st Century Insurance Commercial.
That color on the left is beautiful.

Not sure why they are using 2 M3s in a commercial about stolen cars. I don't think it's even close to the top of the list. I guess two 1990s era Honda accords wouldn't have looked as good.

Don't think it's about showing the car most likely to get stolen. Likely they chose a car that the viewer would feel strongly about if it were stolen. No one is going to feel the pressure to get car insurance when looking at a Honda Civic. The M3 (hopefully) elicits a strong positive feeling then the viewer gets punched in the face with the thought of losing it with no insurance.
...not that I'm in marketing or anything, juss' sayin |

^^I was thinking the same thing when I first saw it. Looks like renders or models built on cad program?

yeah, the more I look at it something seems off... I am wondering if they are just 3d renders, but if they are they look like pretty good renders.

Before the guy raises his hands the front of the car doesn't have a roundel, so I think they are pieced together cars to make it look like a BMW, but not actually copy any specific car, and potentially have to pay licensing fees to someone.

they had to do "significant" amounts of modifications to the image of the car. The M3 design and appearance is copyrighted. That's why it looks distorted
