That is a sweet commercial. The tires made me think it was computer generated, but according to this they just added weight to the tires to make it go uphill.

Yeah, I saw that from the www.ls1.com forums a while ago...it is definitely pretty cool.

GM certainly needed to advertise the F-body more; the only adverts I ever saw a Camaro on were ones for Enterprise Rent-a-Car ...If only they played ads like these more often:

That is pretty cool, but too bad it has nothing to do with appearance and detailing of thirdgen fbodies.

You know what I gotta do.
