Have you ever seen a bigger ad campaign than…
The current barrage over the new VW GTI?!?! WTF?!? I don’t even care what this car is or does, it could have a 0 to 60 time of 1.1 secs and I still already hate it! Who are the people that see those commercials and think “that’s soo cool, I really want one!”
“Get in touch with your fast”?? and they have some little star wars looking dude? And then the German techno rapper in the white coat saying “German engineering in the house yoo!” WTF how young do you have to be to think any of this is cool??!? It’s like VW hired Maxim as their advertising department! The new GTI goes on my Seriously Uncool wall by default just because of the ad blitz! |
Hmm, here in Germany the ad campaign is by far not as big as you described. I haven´t seen a TV spot about the GTI in a long time... And the car mags i read rarely got GTI ads in them either :|
|
for you guys not in the USA here are half of them - http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/02/...t-commercials/
They also have an entire other set and theme with the German techno rapper guy... Here are a few of those - http://www.netzkobold.com/index.php?...-house-ya.html |
I think they are funny as hell.
|
no ads in estonia either. but definately it is a cool car. and i do want one.
|
I haven't seen them in Canada either. My guess is, they arent even being shown on TV! Just another case of "viral ads"??
|
I don't care at all for the new GTI, but the commercials are funny and by you talking about them (good ro bad) they have succeeded in exactly what they were put out their to do and that is get your attention. And Global, they're not supposed to think it's cool, they know its stupid and dorky but they got your attention so they one. And that VW symbol he makes with his hands is not the VW sign in the VW community, it's just suppose to be a peace sign with your fingers. :lol: I can't stand VW, but the ads are funny so more power to their PR department.

The GTI doesn't seem to need advertising in Sydney. The waiting time is a few months, apparently.
|
well that little star wars looking guy is the GTI rabbit but black they have them at dealerships. And I think they are funny ass commercials even the german scientist ones. And after driving the new GTI I have to say that it is one insanely nice car very refined and fast that DSG box is amazing.
