Default New Chevy Volt Commercial

Just saw the commercial for the new Chevy Volt. Anybody else see it yet? I saw it on ABC.
Basically they have the car sitting in a grassy field with a bunch of kids around it, and a guy talking about how good this car is for the environment. It ended with the slogan, "My car hums!"

I couldn't help but notice the resemblance to the Camaro concept car. Do you think they're trying to capitalize on this? What do you think? Would you buy one?

[align=center]Hey `Keegan, do you want a car that Hummmmmm's ?[/align][align=center]Hope time is going fast 4 U : )[/align][align=center][:-][/align][align=center]Volt Already On TV[/align]
[align=center][/align]

[align=left]The highly anticipated Chevrolet Volt is already showing up on TV. During some recent baseball games Chevrolet showcased commercials that have the Volt as the center of attention. [/align]
[align=left]The Volt was unveiled at the 2007 International Auto Show in Detroit last year, receiving extremely high fanfare for it's projected ability to run on full-electric for up to 40 miles. The Volt launched GM's new E-Flex propulsion system.[/align]
[align=left]Production for the Volt is slated to start very early in 2010 as a 2010 model. Insiders have suggested that most of the concept car is staying for the production car design and engineering wise. The only major changes will take place to the interior. Expect the mechanicals of the production car to rival the same specifications that were shown on the concept car; about 40 miles of EV range, 150 miles-per-gallon when running on the gasoline generator.[/align]
[align=left]GM is projecting around 100,000 units per year for the Volt, with pricing to rival in the mid-$20,000 to rival the Toyota Prius. Also expect another E-Flex based GM product just a few months after the Volt's arrival.[/align]

Sorry I was a little off with their slogan.
It's actually, "I've heard the future, and it hums."
Which isn't much better imo. Can I really say that I've gota hum in my future? Time can only tell.
