moose 57 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Turn up the volume! Can you just imagine the red tape, permits and cost to pull off this 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 computer graphics, 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 gear head, this video will stir the soul. There's just something about 3 liters and 14,000 RPM! http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=1_kwxzU4wL4&vq=medium h.a.n.d.
