I think this was a great video, its nice to see each area of development they are working on. Its comforting to know there is such a strong and dedicated force at work to ensure the viability of future products.

I hope they get the memo about the next gen M3 Sedan.

The video is on par with other fluffy "information" most companies release to tell everyone that they are looking into the future. The people in the movie look credible, but from what they say it looks as if the future were still as hard to tell as it used to be when the Delphic Oracle was in the same business.
