And the crowd said "Amen"

I always thought that commercial should be a sticky on every automotive forum on the web.

I need to borrow my father in laws heart rate monitor and watch that a few dozen more times. Mike, how do you get the 'HD' version of that?

The New York section was filmed by a Metro PCA guy and Pelican customer - Joe DeSalvo. The still shots from the set are very cool..

I don't know if any of you have ever studied the use of psychology/the subconscious in media advertising or propaganda (the last couple chapters of my Orwell book deal with the topic), but I think that this commercial is quite possibly the most simultaneously effective and affective commercial ever made. It really pulls at strings in the subconscious, IMHO...

Great commercial, love those cars!
and the music.......... ahhhh.
Thanks Wayne.

I like the VW ad too Chris, Thanks.
I think Porsche has done an excellent job of getting into our 'kitchens' too!

Ferrari commercial is excellent. How about some Pelicans make a Porsche version.

I would LOVE to hear/see that. Street cars and race cars intercut, beautiful locations - country, city and track. Awesome.

The Ferrari commercial - music to stir the driver's soul!

The VW commercial is also one of my favorites. It is EXACTLY why there will always be some type of convertible at Case de Lane. A relaxing moonlight drive on a warm evening with good company and music...nothing like it. VW hit that one right out of the park.
