Default Why Can't I Find This Corvette Related Commercial

Okay, I give up....and ask for help.

Ever since I discovered Youtube, and Vettetube, I have searched time and time again for this commercial, any version, but just can't find it.

There are 3 that I know of.

The original started with a red C5, then a Red C6 for another version.

Once version has them parking the fully loaded car carrier semi by sliding it sideways into the space. (Just HAD to be done with computer graphics.)

But, in all versions, the Corvette comes first, out of this dark garage, and then loads itself onto a car carrier, and as the commercial goes on, other Chevrolets also load themselves, including I think a Camaro which does a Bootleggers Turn and backs into the last spot.

So, anybody got this on file somewhere? Can you upload it? Or just e-mail it to me?

Yep. That's them.

I wonder if they're only on the UK version of Youtube...

I've tried searching for "Corvette Semi" "Chevy New Cars" "Loading Car Carrier" and so on and so forth.

Still want to see the one again with them sliding a Semi into the parking space.

That's because I was watching new Dr. Who episodes.

Still looking through Superbowl ads.
I'll keep looking.

Psst: Pete, if you can wait another two weeks, you won't need to watch your episodes of Doctor Who on YouTube. The Series 3 box DVD set goes on sale on November 6th.

unfortunately, I can relate. My mother was a firm believer and member of the "soap cleans a dirty mouth" movement.

The one with the truck reminds me of the first commercial shot of the C6 that was shown on New Year's Eve 2005, but it's not quite the same one.

I do like how all the cool Chevy ads are so TOTALLY non-PC. The soap one, the 'driving like a lunatic' one, the (later-revised) C6 dream-sequence one... They all stick in your mind, which makes them good ads, but every one of them could be called controvertial.
