SPEED will have an LA Auto Show program on at 8pm Eastern, and Autorotica features the TV's Best Car Commercials tonight at 10pm Eastern.

 

Almost forgot . . .Thanks for the reminder.

 

The time for the LA Auto Show program was wrong. Check first post again.

 

I was going to make a post, see you got to it already. I'm there.

 

That was a great show.

For anyone who missed it, Ford's 1964 "Dreams" commercial introducing the Mustang was rated #2 of all time.

Apparently, it was beat out for the top spot by the musical commercial Dinah Shore did for Chevrolet, "See the USA." The song was used from 56 to 61, and, during those years, Chevrolet was the best selling car in the world.

A nice piece of history, all in all.

 

The lady that did the segment on the 2005 convertible on the show at 8 Eastern was an idiot. She liked that the convertible was available for the first time with a 5-speed manual transmission. Moron.

 

You know I thought I heard her say that, but also thought that she couldn't be that dumb. :nono:

 

She didn't know alot and she is probably driving a Merc or BMW as a daily driver the way she poo-poo'd a couple of things.
