      I'm so glad BMW didn't install passive restraints on the E30.

            Yep saw these last week... should have posted. Glad someone did. I downloaded them so I can enjoy them even if they get taken down by MW in the future.

              Don't we all? Great videos! Thanks! The presenter insisted that women would be attracted to the car. Still haven't seen that myself.

                How do you download the videos, so you can save it and watch it even if MW does take it down?
