fantastic Ad.

A little odd. Making a commercial about going to space when we're not going to space anymore.

So is this a stab at the neutering of our space program? Though that would be a ballsy thing to do from GM considering its primary shareholder......


eitherway fantastic commercial, about time they made one that actually makes you want what they sell.

great commercial .. saw it the other day ... but give it time .someone will whine and
bitch at chevy because the car is hauling *** down the road . remember the 05 vette
ad with the kid daydreaming about driving a vette ? ..great commercial . too bad the
"safety" crybabies forced chevy into pulling the ad off tv.

Pretty good commercial, but not as good as some of the Dodge ones. Not really even close.

Less on the rocket building and engine factory, more on the "holy **** that's one mean, bad *** looking and sounding 'Vette", and some different music and it'd have been a lot better. Not even sure what the hell they were thinking with that music. It conveys nothing. Good concept that some teenager on the Net could whip into an awesome commercial.
