Sure. No problem with that.

GM can't just build a bunch of cheap econoboxes.

Where'd that come from? When I see a commercial comparing the Corvette to a rocket, my first thought isn't that its a car for the average Joe.

Well in prime time every third commercial is for the CTS. I guess it's building the brand, although in terms of cars sales, i don't know. The CTS gets more commercials than the Malibu.

You gotta strut what you got. And, your target has to have the cash for it too...

And the CTS is just a little bit cooler then the trusty Malibu.

"..America Still builds Rockets" Vette Commercial

Just saw a Vette Commercial. It starts of with a narrator speaking with old videos playing. First Video was a Rocket taking off. The last part shows a guy rolling a Hand Man Vette engine across the factory floor and a close up of a camera going through a Vette engine block, while the Narrator is saying "Its nice to know America Still Builds Rockets." then finally cuts to a White Vette hauling it and roasting the tires around turns at a track.

Has anyone else seen it?

And where is our GM Camaro Commercial.

I haven't see a solo Vette Commercial for least....I can't remember the last time saw a Vette Commercial and now this. I just feel a little back handed. I like the Commercial.

Except isn't the argument against Camaro commercials, going back into the 90's, that they advertise "what sells the most". The CTS doesn't sell that many cars compared to the Malibu--less than the Camaro as well.

Gm doesn't need a commercial to sell Camaros. Its not like their gathering rust at the dealerships. Unless its a stealership that is.
