Default Great ad (Ferrari)

This Is A Woody Ad!
Great ad (Ferrari)





Here's a link to a Shell commercial shown in Europe. Ostensibly
they're selling gasoline, but the Ferrari's 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 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 and later
generation, ending with the banshee-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 litres and 14,000 RPM!



Turn up the volume of your speakers or headphones and enjoy!
