	For me one of the best along these lines was for a minivan. Something 
from the Plymouth line if I remember correctly.

	Essentially the add featured the mini van driving along the road. It 
would come up behind another van and they would announce a feature of 
the van and then it would pass the van which I presume did not have 
that feature. After passing about 5 vans it came up behind a Porsche 
911.  Then the announcer starts with ---- "an with a 200 HP v6 engine 
this van has..." The minivan driver pulls out to pass ---- The Porsche 
driver flips into second or something and is gone. --- The announcer 
continues --- "... 36 times the cargo capacity of a Porsche 911" 

	To me this is still one of the best especially because until the very 
last moment they made it look like they were going to pass the 911 :-)

	Anyway thanks for listening folks :-)

Cheers,
Achint

Clear summer night with millions of stars above.
Shiny and sparkling light filling the city scape.
Red hot and glowing carbon fibre disc brake
