Subject: shell oil commercial
Here's a
link to a Shell commercial shown in
Europe . Ostensibly, they're selling
gasoline, but the cars used in the video steal the
show.
Ferrari pulled several
of their race cars from various ages out of storage, flew them
around the world, and filmed them running through the streets of
Rome, Rio, New York, Hong Kong, Honolulu, and Monaco.
No CGI -these are the original cars on the original
streets.
The best part is the
sound - from the basso-profundo notes of the early, front-engine
era, each scene cuts to a later generation, ending with the wail
of a modern F1 car.
The sounds alone bring
a tear to the eye.
Even if
you're not a gearhead, this video will stir the
soul.
There's just something
about 3 liters and 14,000 RPM
!
