Thumbs up Black FC in Geico commerical?

You know that Geico car insurance commerical, with that lady running down the street to pick up her daughter from school...she has the honor student bumper sticker on her *** and is carrying an airhorn...

Anyway, when she runs into what would be a parking space on the side of the road, there are two cars behind her honking for her to move. I believe that the second car is a black FC.

I've seen the commercial several times, but haven't paid a whole lot of attention to it until just now when I looked up and thought I saw the 2nd gen.

Am I right, or just stupid?

Yup, there is also a nice black vert in the Drew Carey episode where Drew and Mimi get into late night drag racing- Drew in a new Corvette and Mimi in a Mustang. It's parked on the side of the road in one scene. Has the silver BBS mesh wheels.

Yo,


Good eye! I've never noticed. It's funny how attuned you can be when it comes to spotting FC's. I just watched "Training Day" and when they pull under the overpass and stop, I'm like, "Dude, an FC just went by!" Too funny.

Great eyes! I have seen the commercial a hundred times and i just happened to notice it about a week ago.
If you watch Seinfeld too, there is a vert FC parked in front of his building in a few episodes. Most often the spot is an Accord H/B though.

Good movie, but I missed the FC in there. I guess I have to watch it again.
