Opels brought to life

Autoblog.com points us to an Opel/Cars minisite that shows the characters from Pixar's latest tour de force interacting with the Opel Astra, Opel Meriva, and Opel Zafira. "In addition to the intro movie that plays automatically when you enter the site, you can click on a link to watch a Euro-market TV commercial that shows the three GM cars auditioning for the part of Mater. The spot is well done, and it's pretty neat seeing how the Pixar folks gave life to the Opels. Each car has it's own personality: Astra is very sporty and aggressive, Zafira is slick and stylish, and Meriva ... well Meriva's a little more shy. If you saw Cars and liked it, you'll get a kick out of it."
