BMW M3 – Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation
BMW lends several vehicles to this flick, and they never get them back, to be sure. There is more vehicle carnage in this movie than any other, including the M3 that Tom Cruise’s character abuses beyond imagination. BMW motorcycles and an X5 driven by co-star Jeremy Renner are speckled throughout the movie, most of them exploding or falling out of the sky at some point or another. The M3 isn’t a spectacular model per se that it demands being mentioned, but the movie warrants a mention or sure. Perhaps the only better advertisement for a car company would be as a body shop.
Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe – Jurassic World
Dinosaurs share the spotlight in this follow-up blockbuster as the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 AMG Sport Coupe pops up. Mercedes did the same thing in 1997 when they unveiled the M-Class SUV on the first Jurassic Park movie. Now, the car is even more attractive and maybe catches a little more of moviegoers’ attention than 18 years ago. The sharply-styled, slant back design is eye-catching and the real-life car is quite nice in an attainable kind of way. It has a 3.0-liter biturbo engine with 362 horsepower and a 9-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters and hugs the road with an innovative 4-wheel drive system that is performance-oriented.
Audi TTS – Avengers: Age of Ultron
Audi took the chance to promote their Audi TTS in the newest Avengers movie. The car is mild in comparison with some of the aforementioned cars, but the four rings on the front of the car still draw the gaze of the crowds. The TTS is another attainable car and is maybe even a little lackluster with only 292 horsepower. The updated TT lineup has sharper lines and great new features but Audi could have found a nicer car to feature in a movie… maybe an R8 concept?
