Saw them shooting a commercial for the TL in NYC

I walked out of my office building today to find lots of trucks, cameras, and a film crew all over the street. I was curious to find out what movie they were filming and upon further investigation, noticed they were shotting a commercial for the TL! It was a burgandy TL and they were shooting the commercial on 24th street between Park Ave. and Madison Ave. One thing I noticed about the TL they were shooting that there was NO wheel gap whatsoever. In fact, the front and rear wheels were tucked into the fender. I guess it makes the car more appealing on camera.

Anyway, just thought I'd share this with you guys.

Cheers

If you look at the cars in the dealer brochures you'll notice they are all lowered and have the windows tinted. This is typical for other brands too.

No kidding, where are the pics? Heck, I'm sure a couple of folks here would've watched for a bit and then offered to drive for them as they would no doubt consider themselves better than the "professional driver on a closed course." I would've told them they needed my car in the commercial

You'd think that they'd film a TL commercial around the same Park Ave location as Infiniti did the G35S: between 45st & 57th, which is an upscale area (extremely modest term).

Then again, filming in NYC is common and ubiquitous.
