Fake. No way they would get any authorization/permit to airlift and then recklessly drive a bmw on a helipad on the roof of a huge building in a heavily populated area. Pretty cool video though.

Fake my dad was one of automotive crew when they shot that commercial. He sent me a cellphone vid of the same car doing the drift on the ground. He never mentioned it being anywhere near a building and the shoot only lasted a day.
I'm sending them to my photobucket right now so i can post up.![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
You can see the cherry picker crane they used to film the aerial footage in the background.

Mini helicopter they used in the shoot.

Looks like i lost the vid of it doing the burnout, but i deff. seen it doing the burnout in the same lot as the mini-copter vid.
