BMW Parades M Performance Cars Around the Track

Here's what I want hear during a video about the new line of tri-turbo, diesel-powered M cars from BMW: Engine noises.

Here's what this video, by BMW, gives you: Everything but engine sounds. Want to hear BMW execs talking about the cars? Want to see them running on a track with loud music streaming over the car noises and fuel economy facts scrawled across the screen?

No? I didn't either, but I still watched this three times hoping to get something good out of it.

Really? You wanted to hear the soulful and high revving noise of diesel engines out on the track? (sarcasm by the way)

This is typical of marketing folk - they know less what to sell and more of putting themselves out. They love to hear their own voices as if it somehow begets more customers.
