Chevrolet Super Bowl Ad Features Transformers, Donuts – Did You Expect Anything Less?

We have to hand it to Chevrolet; rather than an overblown blockbuster ad proclaiming their supremacy, they’ve opted for a somewhat ironic, tongue-in-cheek spot lampooning small-market car dealers.

Donk-Mobile Shreds Really Expensive Tires, Still Fails [video]

For those unfamiliar with the “Donk, Box, and Bubble” trend, here’s a quick tutorial. Donk: A late 1970’s coupe or convertible, generally a GM product, such as a Monte Carlo or Cutlass Coupe, lifted, on hilariously oversized wheels. Box: A mid-1980’s Chevrolet Caprice, lifted, on hilariously oversized wheels. Bubble: A 1990’s Chevrolet Caprice, lifted, on hilariously oversized wheels.

The first time we saw one of these rolling down the street (in South Beach, of course), we thought it must have been someone’s idea of a joke. Car guys can have a sense of humor, right? Wrong. These guys are serious, and although their cars look like roller skates, they clearly have money to throw into their rides. Case and point: the following video, where in a matter of 30 seconds a Box owner completely destroys a set of rear tires. A quick check on Tire Rack reveals that these tires cost nearly $1,200 each.  Is YouTube immortality worth $2,400? Hit the jump to find out.

And speaking of Top Gear, this clip was noticed by those British blokes a the BBC who then headhunted Will to work for the perpetually-in-limbo Top Gear “Made in America” show.
As for the film, it was made with a camera that shoots 300 frames per second and features a supercharged Mustang GT from Ottawa, Canada…. Eh!
