Mini is making big cars, Cadillac's making small cars, Porsche makes a 4 door SUV, Mercedes is making a car for under $30,000.... god!  Everyone just wants to be everything for everyone.

What I was, erm, driving at, was the spot, not the car...

You should be jealous, it's called "American exceptionalism"

Re: Wow, I'm jealous!

I am. I should probably add that I'm a big fan of the US of A. I just can't believe that the great American People do not feel insulted by that kind of advertising!

Oh, I didn't even listen to the commercial.  I just watched it without sound.  But my point still stands.

Yeah, that's right. But I think that all cars created after, say, about 1980 are quite ugly.

Re: Wow, I'm jealous!

^ I concur with most. I have a BMW, and it's a sublime driver, but it's always broke. Next ride is a Mercedes, they look sooo much better and are actually remotely reliable.

The F type just seems to be off aesthetically to me. Can't put my finger on it.
