The 1980s was a strange decade for the James Bond franchise has been. Roger Moore, represent perhaps the most popular Bond actor, had his reign saw the end of 1985s with "A View To A Kill" and was subsequently replaced with new heir Timothy Dalton. The transition from Dalton Moore happens to be very smooth, there was no downtime in the release schedule of films and it seemed as if MGM wanted the franchise running smoothly despite the revision of the main character to keep. Perhaps, what no one had expected behind the scenes of the lackluster reception was Dalton, and received his first James Bond film "The Living Daylights," at the box office and by the public in general. While the popular argument is that Timothy Dalton was not good enough to lead the franchise, or open a movie on his own, even with the Bond name behind it, the truth is a little clearer in hindsight, the franchise and the character of James Bond needed a break. Audience tastes were changing, and the once popular "Super Spy"-style spy / action movies were of broad comedy and muscle bound action heroes displaced. Sun Bond was set as a character and a film series in the rest of MGM for the foreseeable future. It would take five years before Bond would show up again, for the 90-year updates in every possible way: stories from the recent global headlines, a new actor in the title role, and of course - a compliment of the best cars available throughout the world, which attract new fans, while saving the planet. The series appeared with much fanfare 1995s "Golden Eye". Irish actor Pierce Brosnan, up to this point, especially for his role as TV detective "Remington Steele" is known, had taken over the role and it * had the responsibility of Bond "cool" were back. The film shows three show stopping vehicles: a BMW Z3 Roadster, Ferrari 355 GTS, and of course an Aston Martin DB fifth.
The Aston Martin was considered essential, this film was intended to contain large, splashy, modernized debut of a new Bond for the 90s, and it was these things, but it also had some of the most remarkable Bond brands and the use of an Aston Martin DB5 acknowledged the legacy of beautiful characters. The Ferrari 355 GTS driven by Bond's nemesis in the film, Xenia Onatopp, the sadistic guards of the movie villain. While both the Ferrari and Aston Martin remarkable enough to be the main attraction in a lesser film, the real star here is the BMW Z3 Roadster. After carenthusiast.com;. "The car was kept in complete secrecy No photo was released, not even from the filming sessions, which were made in public.
For the filming, provided two hand-made pre-series BMW. There was also the transportation costs and accompanying guards, so get no shots in the hands of the press before the official premiere of the movie and the car. "
Bond for the second function of the 90s, 1997s "Tomorrow Never Dies", will further BMW were the ante in "Golden Eye" deals. The main vehicles used by Bond in this film, both BMW in origin: a BMW 750iL, BMW R 1200 C cruiser motorcycle, both used by Bond in various places in the film. The agreement between MGM and the BMW was a huge success thanks to the BMW Roadster in "Golden Eye" is used, and both parties were interested in maintaining the relationship. While the car is in a great sequence, Bond remote driving it used from a parking garage. The BMW motorcycle was used for a high-speed chase with Bond and his female allies together less handcuffs, because missing the couple to the headquarters of the villain of the film by leading a chase that she takes all over Bangkok, from the crowded streets, dead-end streets and even the roofs of several buildings. The chase culminates in the pair, a death-defying leap across a busy street by rooftop to rooftop.
Since the franchise system to the middle of the decade has been restarted, there was only time to three Bond films before the end of the decade, film. 1999, "The World Is Not Enough" was the last entry for the next decade and it increased the action ante from the previous two led Brosnan Bond films considerably. It is also accused by many fans as an uninspired relapse back to winking Roger Moore era films, but this is really an open question.
Continuing the relationship with "Golden Eye" was founded, MGM and BMW once again shared the vehicles in the film. This time Bond would in a BMW Z8 roadster, the Z3's an update of "Golden Eye", an even more impressive car than the Z3. Some of his formal specifications: A 4.9l V8 S62, six-speed manual transmission and the ability to speeds of 299 km / h.
In the movie, the car is shown several times until it is cut in half (!) From a helicopter equipped with pruning saws. The car was manufactured from 2000 to 2007 and during the introduction of cars for sale, BMW promised prospective customers that there will be a supply of spare parts available, 50 years worth to be exact. According to Wikipedia: "Due to the limited volume of Z8 production were all elements of the cars built or made by hand, thereby compounding the importance of ongoing support from manufacturers for the type allows the price and production process BMW's own options to offer to interested buyers.."
