I think the Ford ad is cool but it still didn't give me the same feeling I got the first time I saw the Camaro concept.

I think the Camaro sells itself.

well...........a couple of things:

1. - Ads are very subjective......some love 'em and some hate 'em.......

2. we all have opinions

3. the "Best Gift Ever" ad was a CONTEST -- won by college students

4. -- you may want to look at the consumer results of polling taken after the superbowl..............



(.....and might I suggest a 'sense of humor" Mr. Percy J. Wellington Number III???)

Loved when that little kid looked at the Mustang and it turned into a GT500.

Cool ad, but it's not aimed at me. I don't forsee an occasion where I would ever buy a Mustang.

Camaro commercial: "Status update.....Best day ever!!!!!"

I LMAO when I saw the Camaro commercial for the first time and just giggled again, but the Ford ad didn't appeal/ relate to me at all because of the setting and situations.

I'm not interested in what a some ford executive considers a pretty woman with short hair and a scarf in a big city to sell me on a product, or a D-bag w/ lame tribal tattoo's and a hipster bicycle rider.

Personally think the Camaro AD grabs more attention. I know I was laughing my butt the first time I saw it, had a neighbor do something similar with my TA a few years back.

The Ford ad is rather boring. This is the first time I've stopped to see it, but I do know I've fast forwarded through it quite a few times.

However the topic is falling in love with a Mustang and shows folks just falling in love with it... well the divorce rate is over 50% Ford... so Chevrolet will have quite a few folks coming their way in the future...

"Cool" to a young kid maybe, with the pretty colors and shiny paint jobs.

Maybe the Camaro commercial requires being able to understand a premise and appreciate humor?

They were two completely different styles of commercials. Like comparing an artsy movie to a comedy.

Apples and oranges.
