Those were the same shots just taken with a cell phone so it lost enough detail to make it look a bit like curtains. Go back and look and you will see.

Why would GM spend a penny on advertising? Beautiful Sexxxy Stingrays were sold out before the first one was made! Waste of money imho...they should take the advertising budget and put it into overtime at BG!

A majority of "young" buyers are idiots. If this sells cars, call me a dinosaur...

Bricks or curtains, I wondered why they would even bother to change it. either way, there is too much background, could have been cropped a lot better to show more of the car.
