Sweet! Any more? And by the way, in the 2nd one, was that a preproduction model with a steering column shifter or something?

Thanks, those were really good clips. I'm impressed for 13 year old commercials! Although the 1st one seems to shows the SC much louder than it really is with stock exhaust. I guess it was just for effect.

Thumbs up

Thanks for sharing. Never seen the first one, and the second I have not seen in years. On the first commercial it sounds like they stuck the mike right by the exhaust of that SC. Sounds sweet!

As an inside joke, before you floor it and rapidly accelerate, you should occasionally say "It takes you almost an hour to get to work..." I ve been doing that now and then for almost a year now.

Thanks TBONE,
Those are 18's wrapped with 225/45's.
The rest is stock including the suspension.
As a college student i can afford much more right now.

Runs like new with 183,000 miles!

Ditto. Very nice, clean looking setup. What rims are those?

Thanks for the clips, I was a wee little one when those aired, so I never saw them, either.

Ya, same here, I was only 12 when these commercials came out.
Can anybody find any more? Any year would be great (1st Gen).

RSTSpeed,
Thanks for the comments.
The wheels are BSA's. Their relatively low priced, but still nice I think.
They go well with the SC like most 5 spoke wheels do.

Anymore commercials? They're obviously pretty hard to find.
I'm still hungry for more!
Thanks guys!
