I remember A LOT of Bonneville comercials. My fav is where all these old Mercedes, Rolls Royce, and Town Cars are sitting in a parking lot and a 96 SSEi comes blasting through. When it passes all the cars fall apart. "May traditional luxary rest in piece. The new Bonneville SSEi, desighned for passing zones not parking lots."

They did something like that recently for the new STS...a bunch of uber lux German cars in silver at "dancing" in a formal ballroom, and a brand new STS bursts in and crashes the party...lol

Good stuff.

I like the commercial with the 04 Graystone GXP that was on when the last ride was shown and the Comp G GTP Grand Prix was shown and then the Bonneville GXP and the GTO did a 180 and slid in the car port that was cool. :P

Was there any 40th edition models made and sent to the dealers for promotional purposes?

i would have to guess that the DCM in a SSEi would have been the promo car of choice
