Hanes Commercial: What Car is Michael Jordan driving?
Although off topic a bit (ok, a lot), I’ve been getting a lot of emails from our readers wondering what car Michael Jordan was driving in the new Hanes Undershirt Lay Flat Collar commercial with Charlie Sheen.
Well, I found the answer in this article:
The first spot has Sheen leaving a hotel and tipping the bellboy. When he sees Jordan pulling out in a Maserati Spyder [Aston Martin DB9] he strolls over to Jordan’s car. “Hey, M.J. The Hanes man himself!” says Sheen, as Jordan tries to be affable while fending off Sheen’s handshake. “Speaking of which,” continues Sheen, “my agent turned me on to these shirts. The collar doesn’t stretch out. You should look into it!”
Well, there you have it. You asked and Tug delivered!
[note: it might not be a Spyder. It just might be an Aston Martin.]
[note: confirmed by another reader -- it's an Aston Martin DB9]

Good Morning,
I too, was interested in what the car was that Mike was in. I have to disagree with you though, because after seeing the comercial a few times, it appears to be an Aston Martin of some sort. I have checked out the spyder and the shape doesn’t appear to be the same. As he is driving off the tailights and the wings on the back are different from the Maserati
Let me know if Im way off base

You just might be right. I couldn’t find any definitive source that provided the answer other than the site I referred to, but there are a couple forums where folks also believe it to be an Aston Martin.
Appreciate the info! Thanks for reading.

KH2 is exactly right–if you look carefully, you can see the DB9 tag on the rear of the car as MJ drives away–it is an Aston Martin DB9
Man I would swear that was a Maserati Thx Jason you cleared it up for us.
my first thought was an aston martin, judging from the shape of the logo on the hood as michael was driving away. it was shaped like a pair of wings lying flat.
aston martins rock!
also, the design on the side of the car near the front tires looks like an aston martin design.
