BMW: A driving Obsession - CNBC Documentary on BMW

Davin · 07-10-2011, 01:57 PM

don't have DVR's in Trinidad so somebody is gonna have to remind me

nick123 · 07-10-2011, 01:59 PM

Cant wait! DVR is already set.

Falafel Combo · 07-10-2011, 02:50 PM

Guys, I'm an enthusiast as much as the next guy, and am really looking forward to this documentary. However, I do not have as much expectations as some of you here. I think it will be interesting and all, but really ... how insightful can CNBC be? They probably won't shock us (e90 gear-heads) with anything they report. I think this will probably appeal more to the average viewer with little to no knowledge of BMW and it's cultural intricacies.

I hope they prove me wrong.

Believe me, I am really looking forward to it, and will have my microwaved-popcorn all fired up and ready to go for this!

Anybody from uk know if we get this Chanel on sky?

Thanks for the heads up.

Evil E90 · 07-10-2011, 09:14 PM

I could give a rats ass 'how insightful CNBC' can be....it's a documentary about a company who builds the cars we love....thats enough motivation for me to watch.

Good heads up, in the UK we recieve CNBC Europe (Virgin Media channel 613 & Sky channel 505) I'll check out the EPG later.... fingers crossed!

Dizzle · 07-11-2011, 05:43 AM

not looking promising for UK Viewers http://www.cnbc.com/id/25098361/

Imola.ZHP · 07-11-2011, 10:30 AM

Does anyone know (or care to look as I just don't have time), if CNBC eventually posts these kinds of videos online? No cable/satellite here, I'm not home enough to warrant anything other than netflix on my Apple TV...

tres · 07-11-2011, 02:28 PM

im sure bmw is happy about this since the last documentry dogged them for bad fuel pumps

BMCoupe_782 · 07-11-2011, 02:38 PM

ABerry · 07-11-2011, 02:38 PM
