Amazing (for car lovers) Shell commercial featuring old-school-evolving-into-new-school Ferraris tearing through major world cities on four continents. (Originally aired in the UK, judging by the narrator.) Viewed with the sound on, it will give chills to anyone who loves driving.

Definitely very cool -- thanks for sharing this, Rain. This makes me think of another cool short film that I think you'll love, called 'Rendezvous' by French director Claude Lelouch. It's a single shot with no editing or effects. Here's the Youtube link:

That proves it. I'm driving the wrong car. No matter where I am, the roads are always jam packed with other cars. I guess it's not so if you're in a Ferrari. Life is not fair. At all.
An abridged version of this ad has also aired in Canada as well.
That is soooo cool! Great commercial!
Awesome, the sound of the engines and gear changes totally make this video. Though the visuals aren't anything to sneeze at. I wonder how it was put together. I can't imagine them shutting down Times Square for that one shot in the city. Easier to just model it right?
Welcome to 6 months ago. PS: This was the most expensive commercial ever filmed. They closed down streets in each city to film it.
