Yeah...It's fun to fullfill those dreams. Maybe not the main dream of your life, but a dream nevertheless!

It's been a while since I watched it, but that's the same commercial that's on the DVD that came with my 2005 Corvette brochure. I still love it!

I remember the first time Cadillac had to run a TV commercial. It was a result of the import invasion in the late 70s. Does anyone remember - or better yet - have a vid of the first Corvette TV commercial?

I think it was first aired during the olympics. You can get it on e-bay with the 2005 brochure.
