Great Russian Car Ad... Two SUV's and Dancers on ice

[Rolf-Dieter ✝︎]

A BRILLIANT AD – THE CONCEPT AND EXECUTION ARE AMAZING!

What a beautiful ad.! NO computer generation here, it is the real thing!

Turn up sound if you want to hear the music.  Click link below.  Please watch all the way to the very end.

This is an amazing car ad on ice and at the end they actually give credits and the drivers bow in their cars.

R-D,

Very nice to see.   Would be good to find a "making of."

[GGR]

Nice!

The music is of a song by Joe Dassin, "Et si tu n'existais pas"

"Et si tu n'existais pas, j'essayerais d'inventer l'amour, comme un peintre qui voit sous ses doigts naître les couleurs du jour, et qui n'en revient pas"

Nice song, it sends me back into my childhood.

I found it worthy to share here. I believe the drivers are graduates of the

 Russian Extreame Driving School,

however, I am sure that some of the segments may have been spliced together. No one I think is that perfect in driving and on ice yet

I took a defensive driving course in my former first BMW M3 (e46) and I was far from perfect.

If they taught you how to do pirouettes that would have been some course... 

[Rolf-Dieter ✝︎]

Peter, I don't know if it qualifies as such (pirouettes) I do know there were times that two of my four wheels left the ground ... It was fun and I'm glad I took the course it saved me several times during future road encounters.

The course was not cheap (nothing is as we all know when it comes to German cars) I think of it as money well spend.

R-D,

Pretty impressive, I was also wondering how many takes it took to complete that video.

Thanks for sharing Rolf.

[Flyair]

I had the same thought about how many cars it took, but the effect is great indeed.

As for the Joe Dassin's song here is the entire text for the Francophiles:

In fact it was written by three guys V. Pallavicini, T. Cutugno, and a certain Losito.

@ GGR:
It also brought me several years back... now, such songs became classical music
