BMW Plays the Race Card?

Bless the hearts of the workers helping out on BMW’s M3 launch in southern Spain. In order to expedite the number of blood-red M3s circling the track at any given time—and to limit the number of tire-frying laps permitted per car at the ultra-manicured Ascari private track outside Marbella—they handed out little coupon books giving a number to each of eight laps permitted per driver.

The only problem—and please don’t call Al Sharpton over this—is that the card were in a booklet labeled “race card.” Yes, we are laminating our copy for our next dinner party.

Our M3 review will be up soon. Until then, make yourselves busy and check out the stunning photos of the new M3 and the generations of hot 3ers before it.

That’s nof funny, guys.
Wrong continent, wrong country, wrong everything. Also, Germans don’t borrow many words from other languages; they normally combine two or three of their own.

Nice comment, Kulturkampf. Ahh, but “Kulturkampf”, now THAT IS funny !

LOVE IT…Race Card!!! Nice!

Anyone emotionally bothered should consider offing themselves…really! and I mean that in the most Christian way possible. The good life is a race card…nascar, sprint, formula, box car, lawnmower….

The M3 is my life long dream and now it exists. Too bad I’ll never afford it. Why do they build such expensive cars?
