Thats some fantastic piece of driving. I'm guessing its a compilation of a few different ads from that era following the same theme, cause that would be a long ad for tv.

Also if you read the caption on the right of the video it mentions that there was ofcourse no computer gen graphics to create those stunts back then, its pretty crazy thinking that they would get heaps of new cars and take them over jumps and stuff.

Good find.

Ah the excess of the 1980s when anything was possible.

Thats an awesome ad, I wish all ads were like that it would stop me from changing channels if it was actually worthwhile watching.

I think it would be great to see some XR6 do that.
