I love this. We do need more creativity and fun in our ads. Seems like most modern ad campaigns use the formula of "stupid premise + annoying people + loud noises + boobs = profit!". And for cars, I agree with a previous poster - enough with the "we get 2 mpg more and have 1 more cupholder." I don't know of anyone who ultimately bought a car because it had better numbers in a few, even if they are key, areas. Image still wins in the end.

Don't confuse creativity and fun with ongoing advertising war between Audi and BMW

or something like that

Game Over.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."

That would be awesome but wasn't the original argument between a bmw sedan and a audi a4 sedan


Put a Zr1 Billboard right next to the Audi r8 billboard
