Banks.com: Guess the Drive

An ongoing vertical series for Banks.com. Each episode puts a car through a real, well-known place, built from photos so the location stays recognizable: a drive a customer may remember, or one they never got to take. The quiet drive and the guess hold attention, and the brand rides along instead of interrupting. Not every curve is the real curve, and some views could not be reached from the road.
