    Every car was actually taken out of Ferrari's fleet of historic cars, dusted off, tuned, and run on the actual streets of those cities.

    From the original source that sent around this European commercial:

    "Ferrari pulled several of their race cars from various
    ages out of storage, flew them around the world,
    and filmed them running through the streets of Rome, Rio, New York, Hong Kong, Honolulu, and Monaco.
    No CGI -these are the original cars on the original streets."

    I never get tired of watching that! Easily the greatest commercial ever. The cinematography is so well done.

    I'm pretty sure one of the threads when it originally came out many years ago (2007 ?) had something like that - try a search on 'shell commercial'

    I'm fairly certain that this is the only allowable repost on Fchat, no one can ever tire of watching it.

    Not very detailed, but here's a few clips. Both videos used to be available for download from Shell....haven't hunted for them lately.
