Best commercial

You may have seen it before but it's worth seeing again.
(turn the sound way up)

Great one to share, thanks for doing that...it gives you a feel for the changes in engine design over the years. The deeper "throaty" exhaust notes of the vintage cars can easily be discerned from the newer 19K RPM models.

I've chaired a couple of Challenge events where the vintage cars and early 2000 cars are brought out for their own race groups and the sound is incredible. On a single car qually lap you can hear it coming to you from a mile or more away and building to the full-on crescendo down a long back-straight. During the race it is like a symphony at 110Db - hearing protection required!!!

There's nothing like the sweet sound of a Ferrari...well, except for maybe a Lamborghini.

Thanks for posting it.

This is the best commercial I have seen in ages. The Detroit Chrysler Commercial with Eminem that was shown during the Superbowl.
