Default All State Insurance Commercial

Have you seen the All State Commercial where the driver along with the front hood ornament are singing?
It looks like he's driving a blue Jag convertible, but it's hard to tell. Anybody else have the same feeling ?

It's an 2016 BMW de-identified. Apparently Allstate went out of it's wy to change the front end in order to prevent promoting any car brand. FWIW the song is "Opportunities" by the Pet Shop Boys with a female VoiceOver. I have too much time on my hands.

I edited the first post. Meant to type 16, not 06. Car has a custom front end.

I think they just used a graphics program to edit out the center of the grille and add poorly fitting bars to it. Hood ornament is obviously where the BMW ornament would be. The guy driving looks like that because he is dreaming about insuring an XK.
