How has Chevy not done this?

Why in the world does GM not have Jensen Ackles and Jared Padelecki shilling for the SS?

They already tried giving Sam a new car as product placement (It was a Dodge though). The story arc basically had dean laugh at it then it was eventually destroyed.

The Impala>all

I was gonna say, the Charger was hardly product placement. They lambasted it from day 1.

It was as close as they were guna get to product placement really. It'd be completely out of character for Dean to accept a car other than the Impala even if it was Sam's. They'd have to have a bit character driving any car they wanted to show off.

Would you have them shill in-character as Sam and Dean, or as themselves, Jensen and Jared? I think a meta commercial would be funnier/awesome, but I don't know how well it would work, necessarily, since Dean is so heavily invested in that particular car, and in older things in general, like his taste in older rock and roll. Sam's always busting Dean's chops over his musical preferences, and the Impala itself is pretty much a third brother.

Don't forget the Mustang in the the Titanic episode. But even then they ended up making a big deal that it wasn't the Impala.

They had them in a Mustang in that ep because originally they were going to have a Mustang for the full show but the creator was convinced to switch to an Impala by his neighbour because it looked more menacing.

I'd have them in character as the brothers. Dean in Baby, and Sam in the SS. Kind of like a "the same but different" thing.

[Dimly lit warehouse at night, looks like it's just finished raining, thunder still cracks in the background]

[Camera pans down to a old door, barely hanging onto its hinges]

[DEAN WINCHESTER is thrown though it, rolling hard across the concrete.]

[He's coughing, close up of his face, eyes go wide]

[Switch to his view, in front of him stands monsters, all kinds, demons, ghosts, ghouls, etc, all of them hissing and growling]

[He stands, slowly, a look of resignation in his face, he can't win this, the monsters slowly shuffle forward]

[There is a engine roar in the background]

[The monsters pause.]

[Another roar. There's now fear in the faces. They shuffle backwards]

[Slowly the SS creeps into view from behind the warehouse, engine rumbling, pulling up next to Dean. SAM WINCHESTER is behind the wheel]

[Dean opens the door and slides in next to him]

Dean : 'Where have you been?'

Sam : 'I was getting a bigger monster'

[Close up of the gear stick, Sam shifts into first and revs]

[The monsters are backing away now.]

[Revs]

[Revs]

[Revs]

[Smokes the tires]

[Monsters are fleeing now]

[Car launches to the sound of AC/DC THUNDERSTRUCK and roaring laughter from Dean]

[Camera pans up to the sky again, lightning strikes, the engine roars]

The new 2015 Chevy SS.

I'm bored at work with too much time on my hands.

I also watch way too much Supernatural.

Because I don't think GM actually wants to sell the SS. That is the only excuse I can see for their crappy advertisement and by crappy advertisement I mean none at all.
