Default Missing Audi A3 man they are going all out...

Check this out I saw the commercial a few times now so I figured what the heck and it seems that there are quite a few different sites made now for this and I'm guessing this is one hell of an elaborate advertisement...

So what are your thoughts on all of this?

You're right, it's just an elaborate marketing / advirtising scheme. It's not for real.

If it was real, the cost of all the commercials, web stuff, and other would far exceed the cost of the car.

Personally, I don't like the technique. Sure it's creative, but it really just tells me how easy it would be to steal one, or have mine stolen if I had one.

see my question is if you find the car do you win it or something? I know Land Rover did it with the LRD3 in Chicago I'm sure they did it in other places.
