Some Engineer friends and I were discussing it. They said it was possible from a physical stand point but that probably it was done with CG. I want to believe it is really just for the fun of it. Anyone know if it is?

Nice ad but looks fake. I really dont think it can be done. May be in theory only..,.

watch close enough and you'll see that the car actually doesnt "drive" on the roof at all (not even for a split second). It fell down and kept going ONLY coz the tunnel has a small diameter that supported the front of the car.

Fake, but awesome concept, filming & FX nonetheless. And it features Schumacher.

I don't know, if you watch it closely you can see that the tunnel was alter (ramps) to make this possible. Oh yeah starting at 2:13 to 2:18.
