The latest commercial for the 2012 BMWM5, which was shot by BMW of Canada, imagines the performance-driven sedan being shot out of the barrel of a gun. And while the incredible feats that follow, including a giant glass apple shattering and enormous water balloons bursting are a feast for the eyes, we're guessing it will leave you wanting to know more about what it offers under the hood... as any good commercial should.
