Default New 350z Castrol Commercial

I was watching The Ultimate Fighter a few minutes ago and a new 350z commercial for Castrol or some type motor oil came on. Did anyone else see it or know where to find it?

My only problem with the commercial is that the guy in it looks like he should be driving a old trans-am or camaro, not a 350Z. Mullet FTL.

I haven't seen the ad. I didn't find it on YouTube or on the Castrol website. Anybody got a link to it?

I'm sure hope they'll get rid of those stupid dipstick ads.

What year Zs are those? You did notice that the one in the shop isn't the same as the one on the road, didn't you?

I saw this thread and didnīt click till I just saw it now. I love the attention the 350z gets even with the new 370z out. I think our car is becoming iconic and respected more and will one day be a classic

without a doubt, this bodystyle is amazing... when i first saw it, i was probably 16 or so... knew i had to have one! now that i'm 25, i'm on my second one, and smile everytime i look in the parking lot... it absolutely will always be one of my favorite cars, regardless of price... just such a clean look... classy, yet sporty... can roll up to a club, and it looks awesome, or hit a track day, and kick some a**... what more could you ask for? except a couple hundred extra horses :P

so castrol oil is pretty good?

I know that you love the Z.
So do I.
But it's not iconic and it will not be a classic.
It's a sport car and that's it.
