Has anyone seen that Caddy STS commercial (USA) where the E60, Benz E class, and other assorted luxury cars are being chased down by a silver grey STS?

Well Motortrend did a head to head comparo with the 545i and STS, the 545i was more than a match for that Crapillac!

I think the STS should be stepping aside for the 545i! :winkcool:

Can't say I've seen the Caddy commercial but speaking of commercials, I caught the tail end of a commercial for Wachovia the other day and it featured multiple E60s doing all kinds of spins and slides (it may have been CGI and not real stunts).

Anyone else see the entire thing?

I saw the Wachovia commercial the other day. I've only been able to duplicate some of the stunts (kinda hard without limited slip - oh, there I go again )

Thanks for posting it EBMCS03 -- now I remember seeing it before. I guess I'll have to go run out and buy one now!

Now if we can get a link to the Wachovia ad, I'd love to see it in it's entirety...

Before you bash it, has anyone driven the new STS? I have and it is better that you think.

Do you think its better looking than an E60?
I think it definitely looks more aggressive.
