George on Commercials

Here's a question for all of you! My friend seems to think that the actor that plays George is the voice we hear on the new Nissan Altima commercial. You know, the one where they talk about how impressed they were with the "other" company's ball bearing test so they show the ball bearing test being performed on an Altima. I have seen the commercial a hundred times but never paid much attention to the voice. I will listen the next time. Anyone else noticed this? Just curious. Yo Yo Ma!

I noticed that as well, but I'm fairly convinced it's not him. It's a pretty generic-sounding voice... almost as if someone was doing a vocal impression of George. I'd guess it's jut plain someone else.

It's definitely him. He's even spoken of that fact.

...Actually, I was thinking the same thing wit respect to the line "Hey, they're doing that ball-bearing thing."

		Sounds *exactly* like him to me, especially the New-Yorkese
"Bawl".

It IS his voice!...or a good imitation of it...maybe it's because it came on after Seinfeld! heh

YES, It is George on the Altima commerials! It sounds exactly like him when he says "Hey they're doing that ball bearing thing" On the first Altima adds I thought it might be him but I wasn't sure, now I'm 99.9% sure it's him.It seems strange to hear his voice and I wonder how he got the job. Btw I love Sienfeld and I think I've only missed one episode, even watching repeats, I pick up on stuff I missed the first time and usually laugh as much the second time around.

Yes, this is one of the few shows worth watching in repeats.

And we have definitely established that Jason Alexander does those Nissan ads. He has spoken of it.
