Old Spock Takes On New Spock

By: Sara

Trekkies are losing their mind! A battle of the Spocks is pure heaven for superfans in the new Audi commercial. Leonard Nimoy is the original and ultimate Spock, but Zachary Quinto does a pretty bang up job in the relaunch (I can't wait for the second in the series! "Star Trek Into Darkness" hits theaters May 17th). Nimoy and Quinto race each other to the golf course to see who's car can get them there faster. Spoiler alert: old Spock's car is slower, but Leonard Nimoy wins the commercial by busting out his "Ballad of Bilbo Baggins" and then using the Vulcan nerve pinch in the end.

Nimoy sings at 1:09 and does the Vulcan nerve pinch at 2:15.
