Yeah I saw this video a loooooong time ago, but it is cool. Although I still doubt that it was made without any cgi there are just some parts that don't seem like they would work...like the wheels going up the ramp, and the wiper blades stop all of a sudden once they hit the next piece....and the fact that the scene just looks like it was rendered on a computer.

i'm with him...i really doubt there wasn't any help from computer animation...the whole wheel part is what really tips you off

They said in an interview i read about the commercial that they used some kind of magnet system to make the wheel go up, the whole thing is 100% non cgi.

They used wheel bearings to make them roll uphill, weighted them just so.

There IS cgi in the commercial but ONLY on the rolling muffler. They had to link it together in that part, so there was a bit of fiddling with it.. but it's all natural in that everything that you see happening did happen with only the laws of physics as the Master of Ceremonies.
