The greatest ramp jump (futile) attempt is still the Super Jump by Kenny Powers.

Watch that car disintegrate!

If I could bold and underline that question mark, I would. ]]>Apr 7th 2008 8:40PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/
The way the US economy is going and the US dollar being on parity with the Canadian dollar I am not surprised if it is the other way around...

[SPOILER ALERT--though not missing much]
- American guy notices ramp, decides to document town.
- Towns folk are excited for launching 135i to the states.
- Boring interviews with townsfolk
- Launch day, nobody from outside of village shows up
- Car countdown to launch (finally!)
- Police guy interrupts. Driver goes unconscious.
- 135i NEVER launches in air (making your 30+ min spent watching this a waste of time)
- Mayor asks viewer if they have ramp ideas to send them.
- Credit roll. (Eyes roll with that too)]]>Apr 7th 2008 9:05PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/Apr 9th 2008 5:34PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/
Okay, I get it, the new 1 series coupe is coming but a more exciting and thrilling video should have been made rather than this boring time waster.]]>Apr 7th 2008 9:19PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/04/07/video-rampenfest-the-movie-now-playing-on-the-screen-in-front/I loved it. I think it's targeted to a different crowd than the original BMW films, as the 1 series is a much different demographic for BMW in the US.

How could you not like some of those interviews? Ever seen Waiting for Guffman?

Kudos.
