Agreed.....a very inspiring ad. I can't remember the last time I saw a manufacturer-ad that extols the company's competition.

I picked up Dieter at a Chrysler driving event in 2004 with 2 of his executives, main thing they talked about was how Chrysler could win some Nascar races or quit sponsoring teams that didn't win.
He wanted to drive, saying he always drove. We were in a Pacifica.

This one is actually a reality for me - I run a construction company and own two MB trucks that are making me $ to buy BMW sport cars.

Love everything about the ad, especially the classic S class in the garage.
