Final Four Solstice Commercial?

Hum...this article seems to imply that a Solstice commercial will debut during this weekend's final four?

Here's the blurb (rest of article is on other stuff):
Quote:
FINAL FOUR: Two local advertising and marketing firms will make unique contributions to this weekend's festivities. Coreaudiovisual produced and edited an edgy new TV commercial to debut on the broadcast of the games that will introduce the two-seat Pontiac Solstice roadster. The ad features a voice-over by actor Matt Dillon. ...

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

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.
