[MBZ] OT: Have you seen these TV ads

2007-07-09 Thread Chuck Landenberger
Hi guys.

There's a Citi (bank) ad that shows a MB 190SL owned by a waitress  
and two guys talking about how to invest or sumpin' like that   
She chases the kid away from her car..Sorta' cute.
And..

Does anybody believe the Lexus IS ad with the ball bearing rolling  
around, only to be caught by the driver when he flicks the wiper  
blade..???  C'mon!!!

So the ad agency is batting .500 on those two...

Take care,

I've seen the commercial. What they don't say is that she bought the SL from
Kaleb on eBay, drove it to work a few years ago to show it off to her
co-workers, and the engine seized. There is NOTHING in the commercial to
suggest that the car actually runs, just that it is hers.

A naive assumption.

Maybe she got it cheap on eBay.

Car is hot. Waitress is hotter.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Have you seen these TV ads

2007-07-08 Thread Zoltan Finks
Yep. Saw that commercial.

Reminds me of the Caddilac commercial that shows four young studly
business men riding around in a silver Caddy. They pull up to a diner
and meet four distinguished gentlemen in a black colored one. They all
look eachother up and down. And the announcer says something like
welcome to gentlemenhood or something like that.

The problem with this fantasy is that there are in fact two types of
people that drive big Cadillacs, but the commercial has the types
wrong.
