Looks like it's a theatrical commercial...


In theaters today, watch out for “Showdown,” the wildest ride in the most advanced Corvette ever. It will be shown in 2,400 theaters across the U.S., just before the coming attractions, so make sure to get there early!

That was awesome. Definitely geared towards a younger generation. But I am not sure I get the Stingray spaceship chasing the stingray corvette. And ideas?

This was in the previews of the hunger games in the theatre I was at tonight. You could hear the kids, highschool kids, etc commenting how sick the car looks after the commercial.

I've watched this commercial so many times that now I'm torn between Torch red and Cyber grey! Are the wheels silver or chrome?

I'm sorry, but I don't like that commercial. Not one bit.
GM needs to get attention by highlighting the car's performance and attributes. Showing it blasting down leaf-lined back roads, turning laps on a hot track at the limit or even creatively filmed shots of one doing a burnout and hauling down the dragstrip would be more effective than showing one being chased through the city by a futuristic robot plane.
IMO, of course.

Hey S,
You might like this series shot at the brand new Spring Mountain loop.

I liked the "transformerish" ad but my wife didn't and she was in the ad business. But she also gives me carte blanche for me to see all the sci-fi I want to.

If the object of that commercial was to get me interested in a Stingray, it had the exact opposite effect.

Here's how you make a 'car' commercial, and this one isn't even selling a car:
