Why did I read that as Cardiovascular? Wonder if the commercial will increase the heart rate?

Seems I read somewhere else about a Solstice connection with the final four. This must be it! Gosh, Final Four this weedend (even without the Badgers) and DVD at dealers on Monday (maybe), Oh anticipation!

Anybody have a better idea of the exact timing of the commercial? I'd rather not record several hours if I don't have to. Ideally, we could narrow it down to a half-hour range.

Me too. Hope dealers get a broadcast e-mail or something tomorrow telling them what time. That would be cool.

Seems like I saw some Pontiac commercial on about the Final Four or something earlier today.

If somebody records it and posts it....I'll host it. I remember that being a problem here last time when another commercial was available.

The only Pontiac commercial I saw during the NCAA was for the G6, with the announcers Dick Vitale and Greg Gumbel.

Looks like it's posted from pontiac.com now. There's a link in another thread from today.

Yup it's the same spots on the Pontiac site (Solstice and G6 shared commercial).

I'm recording the game ... would appreciate it if somebody could take note of the time the commercial comes on and post it so I can fast-forward to the right spot.
