At least they used a GXE, instead of an SE or GLE. Probly saved themselves a couple bucks.

It's an old commercial.

There's an FX commerical where it parallel parks between 2 Maximas (6th gen and 5th gen I believe)

Ii love the State Farm commercials, like the one with the red Cavalier in the water. My girl freind has the same car. I love seeing the Max get beat up..... dunno why.

Ever notice the Geico commercials getting more and more off topic?

Well State Farm probably shatted up 4-5 4-gens to make that commercial.

All commercials?
What's there to screw up?
Back-up into this car, rear-end this car, end of take.

Maybe you could call up State Farm to see how many takes and 4th gens they used.

I think they did a good amount of damage to the bumpers, & I can't imagine that would be cheap to fix (of course this is an insurance company we're talking about and a large one at that.).
