Launch a 135 Over the Atlantic!
Haha, so apparently this small quirky town is going to try to build a ridiculous ramp with plans to physically launch a 135i from Europe...across the Atlantic:eyebulge:..and over to the US.....
http://edition.cnn.com/video/#/video...cho.bmw.ad.cnn If anyone finds the full 30 min documentary video def post it! *in case you think it's real (actually is pretty well staged with convincing footage), I'll put your hopes down now...funny none the less :smile:

I love the town website, complete with a beauty pageant to find "Miss Rampenfest": http://www.oberpfaffelbachen.com/miss.php
But my favourite is the 'Welcome Message' from the Mayor of "Oberpfaffelbachen": http://www.oberpfaffelbachen.com/message.php

haha, I watched the entire thing. It was somewhat entertaining. I will refrain from any comments about some of those Germans related to my line of work.... It was fun to watch
