LOL...BMW is teasing us geeks:

'Time goes by so slowly for those who wait'

.......

...that's us

I have no clue what it is. I'm not sure it's even a car. I am not getting my hopes up, we'll see when the time comes.

So is this the first public unveiling internationally?

Nothing to do with F01 7er per se.

"The new era" is the official F01/F01 7er campaign.

"Never stand still" will be a very interesting event. I'm sure it will have the GINA Light-like publicity effect.

Image campaign is huge right now at BMW AG. Expect to see results in a huge image boost (globally) in a year or two - boosted by new & very important markets like Russia, India, China, Middle East. Even in the US the image boost is recorded in the targeted population. Hydrogen7 is doing miracles, so did the "Company of ideas" campaign. Image of BMW AG & BMW brand has never been so strong. There was a small decline in Europe, but marketing people are working on that. The issue will be addressed soon.

is there a reason why they are holding this event in Russia?

I think the secret is hybrid technology and something to do with dynamic efficient.

NEVER STAND STILL


Exceptional achievement and success is always the starting point for the next step - this tireless driving force is the distinguishing factor of successful people.

BMW is taking this approach as cause for a very special event.

The world's largest hourglass is counting down to the event at the Red Square in Moscow.

But what is going to happen when the last of the silver balls have fallen?

Fascinating stuff this..and another showing of BMW's 'out of the box' marketing approach.

As for your question Rob, I think Eni meant that the entire project of constructing the hourglass has taken 4 months, and that it has been situated in Red Square since July 6th, 08.

The world's largest hourglass has been standing at the Red Square in Moscow since 6th July 2008.

A new level of performance? .. hmm.. new M3 CSL maybe? Or a preview of the new Z8 Roadster Concept (doubtful since Russia wouldn't be the biggest market for a Roadster)..so hmmm...very captivating countdown

 

[SDNR]

Oops ...yes you're right ...Tine did make that clear

 

[Bartek S.]

Z0 Concept by Andrei Avarvari?

 

[jack]

why russia ?
why so close after the 7series annoucement ?
why in a public area ?

this is really confusing me

russia is about the rich people - luxery
this shouldn't be about a new car - maybe a new individual line
a public area is more about a party, an event - you wouldn't close it directly after the annoucement

they said its about bmws image
they said its about performance

never stand still

some new engine or manufactoring developments, would only bor people ...
...
i'm confused
