'Keep my (new) BMW' -- really???

The car was possessed! Didn't you saw the ending?


"Imagination is more important than knowledge" ALBERT EINSTEIN

But what gets me is that the BMW isn't new. My aunt has the exact same one, that model came out in 1997.

i assumed the BMW was sort of a stereotype or some kind of detail intended to portray the charater in a certain way.
For some reason, suburban characters in movies are always shown to be driving fancy cars and living in large, expensive homes.In real life, similar characters probably would drive minivans or standard SUVs (like Fords) and live in 1500 square foot homes, not 2500 square footers like his.
I think filmmakers often use stereotypes to try to describe the character. He was educated, clean cut, and from the suburbs, so they used typical stereotypes as a way of trying to develop the character.The film industry isn't always accurate at stereotypes or character portrayals. In real life, that guy would have an SUV so he would have room for his growing kids and basketball equipment, but that may not fit the stereotype they were looking for and trying to create with the viewers.
Sometimes movies just annoy me because they always portray characters as a bit more upscale than they really would be in reality.

Are you a little mentally deficient? The father had driven him to the hospital. When the dad left with his family - after all that had happened - he just gave the car to the rabbi to leave in and went with his family. You can't conceive of a situation where the father has much, much, much more on his mind than the freakin' car? Even if he meant the rabbi to KEEP the car - the rabbi had just put himself in a dangerous situation to help the father's daughter when no other bugger would. What would YOU do to say thank you to someone like that?






'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings.

You guys are missing the biggest problem with this.

That guy is Jewish.

BMW is a German make.

now i know a thousand of you have friends that are Jews that drive German cars and are toolingup responses as such but this guy is a hard core, old school, Hassidic Jew.

ain't happenin'

Actually that model is E39 (1997-2003) which also I had about the same time this film launched. So it really wasn't a new car which I'm sure someone else here has pointed out too. But at least it was 540i which packed some serious punch.

It had 300,000 miles on it and a rod knock. Time for a new car anyway :)

I don't love her.. She kicked me in the face!!
