Default -=BANNED=- c6 Vette Commercial video...

Hi guys,

I just watched this video, and i thought wow great commercial. Upon looking into it more, it looks like the commercial haters group didnt agree. They banned it on the grounds that it promotes illegal driving etc etc...

I reckon its great...I checked and couldn't find it posted anywhere... 8)

Enjoy...

seems pretty childish to ban it though...

Jeez...what a bunch of idiots...there was nothing wrong with the commercial, I remember seeing it too...it was cute...got the feel of the car through, and advertised that it is the same icon it has always been. If that's suggesting illegal driving practices, then the Mazda ad with the whole group of Mazda vehicles out in the middle of the desert skidding around ought to be banned, perhaps the Caddy one with the SRX as a performance vehicle too, as well as that new Saabaru commercial for the 9-2x..hell...even the ones with Lance ought to be banned, I mean, he's going waaaaay to fast to be safe...

Don't the words, "professional driver, closed course" mean anything anymore?
