Props to Kroger

Unmistakable - Inka Orange BMW 2002

" />">" />

That rules. Thanks for sharing. 

I used to catch a ride home on breaks from college with a girl in a 2002 tii.  To my eye, that orange car suffers from a wee bit of a case of skewed proportions.  Still pretty cool.

It's a cartoony art style. The details are correct even if the proportions are exaggerated.

In reply to Cactus :

Yeah, I get it, but I don't "get" it. 

is that a Fairmont Station wagon behind it? The purple with the woodie sides

Totally bimmer.

I think so, and the purple truck is a ranger.

Maybe closer to Colorado (the color) than Inka - mine was Colorado, which I prefer.  Seriously cool!!

I saw the thread title and was like "well someone missed the off-topic section". Nope.

I love looking at architect demo paintings/renderings and trying to place the cars in there too

Yeah these ads are like claymation but probably done on a computer instead. If someone doesn't live in Krogerland they probably haven't seen the whole ad.

Here's the entire 15 second spot - hope it okay to link a commercial; if not, please delete and accept my apologies.

Someone had fun, isn't that a DeLorean on the right? On the left I have no idea what that is, it looks like a driving bathtub?

In reply to Cactus :

It's not exaggerated perspective, that's a rendition of the ultra rare one off popemobile edition.

Ah!  Thank you.  That explains it!

Mach 5?

The brown sedan near the start seems like a Fiat. Obviously some car nerds worked on this.

Maybe a VW Thing?

Kroger sucks.  They have a psych-opps team that moves inventory on the shelves nightly so you can't find anything. Plus there are multiple places in the store where the same/similar products are displayed (but never a full grouping). They minimally stock preferred brands favoring their own brands too the extreme, they never run out of Kroger branded merchandise yet are often out of name brand merchandise. Their pharmacy refuses to syncronise my prescriptions so I have to make multiple trips to the store per month for meds. ALL of their shopping carts need a 4 wheel alignment..... The soda isle is 60ft long only about 12 ft of that is allocated to non-coke products. The Snack isle is over 50% FritoLay. I could go on. But still are still light years ahead of WalMart, it makes my head hurt to have to go there. I'll pay 30% more for something at Ace Hardware to avoid going inside WalMart. NOTE: always check WalMart when online shopping, they are making a play for Amazon's nitch, and have some good deals.

Kroger Too cheap to pay real actors for their commercials, they have resorted to computer generated cartoons for TV ads.

Does anyone else pronounce Kroger as K-Rogé? Or maybe that was just us. 

phew, for a split second I thought you were giving props to this guy....

Kinda like going to Tarj-ay for fancy shoppin'. Or Dwan-yay Johnson. 

The back of the truck screams S-10, but the front is all Ranger.

In reply to Keith Tanner :

Yeah, pretty much. 

Anybody else getting a "Shoe" vibe?
